The Eyes of a Child
On Thursday morning, the kids and I had about thirty minutes to fill before the Creative Discovery Museum opened. They decided they wanted to ride the free electric shuttle bus around downtown Chattanooga. Before we stepped onto the bus, the driver and I had the following conversation:

Mom: Could we ride just for fun?

Driver (with a look of irritation): You can ride, but I don't know how much fun it will be.

Mom (cheerfully): Oh, you do not know the fun my two year old and four year old will have just from riding a bus!

Driver: Yeah, whatever. After the first three or four trips it starts to seem a lot like work.

After about ten minutes of the kids being on the bus, the change in the driver was obvious. He was in a better mood, and he even started pointing things out to the kids and making jokes. It reminded me of why I have always liked to be around children so much. It is so much nicer to see the world through the eyes of a child!
