Reclaiming Wonders
A young blonde girl and a young blonde boy are sitting on the steps of a brick porch outside a house. The girl is holding a small white rose or flower and appears to be showing or sharing it with the boy. The boy is wearing a gray t-shirt with the word 'RUGBY' printed on it and shorts, while the girl is wearing a light blue long-sleeved shirt and dark pants. They both have sandals or casual shoes on. The scene depicts a tender moment of camaraderie and bonding between siblings or close friends, showcasing their innocence and curiosity about the natural world around them.

Siblings' Tender Moment

I need to remember days like this. When big sister invited over brother to share the ice cream, because he slept through the Dairy Queen drive thru. To want to spend her Christmas money to buy a souvenir for sister who couldn’t go to the zoo. To spend extra time helping guide and train the littles when Mom is elsewhere. Soothing each other’s tears. That no matter what else and how crazy and loud our life is and how the volume hits my breaking point way too often... they love each other fiercely. They nag and fuss and bicker... but usually the noise is made of giggles and enjoying each other and working together on their latest project or scheming ways to cause mischief. They are a team. I need to be not the grumpy Eeyore but the “silly old bear”... and enjoy these days.... half full not half empty... make my favorite day today... as Winnie the Pooh said ;)
