- The little ones seemed a bit bored today. They’d exhausted all variations of ‘chase ball’ and were sitting on the curb swishing sticks.
I grabbed my mason jar full of change and spent the next 10 minutes or so creating little piles against the trees.
“Oh, no!” I cried in an overly dramatic way. “Look, see there’s a hole in my pocket and I’ve lost ALL my change.”
After a few moments retracing steps, I said “Tell you what…if you find it, you can keep it.”
Over the next hour I watched as they scurried through wooded path, leaving no stone unturned. Finally, at the very end of their ‘quest’ – they sat around to divvy up their ‘treasure.’
And, “…each of them was better together than either of them could have been apart.”
That’s one of the greater lessons, you see – to know that we alone are never better than this, our collective ‘we.’
It was the best $22.63 I’ve ever spent in my life.
Oh, for a little silliness to keep our littlest planet dwellers entertained.
Namaste, my loves – wishing you eternal peace. ❤️
