Splish Splash
Tonight, while in the bath, Ryan realized that he can splash. The first time was accidental - he kicked his legs and the water moved and there was a small noise. Then he threw an arm forward and made a bigger splash, which was followed by a small pause and then a big grin.
Then he went to town flailing both arms and both legs at the same time, wildly splashing water with his eyes wide open, followed by a giant smile. He paused, then did it again. And again. And again.
I was getting soaked but didn't care one whit. His unadulterated joy at understanding the cause and effect that his movements were causing was infectious.
Here's to appreciating the simple pleasures in life.
