The way I go through life almost guarantees I’ll miss things. I’m 6’2″ tall and 63 years-old so I don’t usually see many of the things my nearly 3-year old granddaughter sees, things that are closer to the ground.
Fortuitously, behind my house is a hill, too steep for lawn, but perfect for a rambling, rough flower garden. I can stand on the deck and look right up at the undersides of flowers. I recommend it highly—even if laying down is necessary. The undersides of flowers are a special secret little kids have mostly to themselves. I’m so glad I live on a hill so I can see some of the world differently!


I especially love that second picture–as if Tinkerbell were in there spreading her dust! I had to chuckle, since I spent much of my time when my 3 were born on the floor with them, and then I would write letters to my mother telling her what the world was like from their point of view–SEAS of dandelions, and lots of knees! 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous
I sure do that love that first one, John. As well as your perfect explanation! (It’s just as much fun to picture you sprawled out there to see this!)
That’s the fun part: I don’t have to go into any yoga pose to see this given they grow on our back hillside! Not that I’m adverse to sprawling out, a very useful and humbling position to sometimes be in!
