There are few interactions as intentional as a two year old waiting for/helping with cracking peanuts. I loved watching her wait in wonder as she had never experienced this before. I loved how bright her eyes lit up as she showed me the magic she was witnessing. I loved when she out her hand on his arm waiting patiently for his assistance.
Don't lose the anticipation. Don't lose the excitement. Don't lose the wonder.
She's so cute!!! I love when Juanito experiences new things and is enthralled…things that I forget to appreciate. We put up Christmas light and took him outside in the dark to see him and his jaw dropped! He kept saying, "Wow." It's such a great reminder to have kids and to remember the wonder, as you said.
