Young at Heart

One of the great things about having young parents is that your kids have young grandparents, still able to play pretty darn hard. I was thinking about this yesterday while Grandpa/ Pete was busy inventing "partner soccer," an excellent game where a grandparent holds a toddler in the air and swings her legs to kick the ball. (Clio fell over herself with delight, and demanded to be swung around "again!" and "again!").

Then, uploading some pictures from the last week, I remembered this great little clip of Clio and Nonny. I must say, I didn't realize Nonny was quite this fearless. As Dave said watching the video, there's a lot of room for error. But as you can see, Clio was also delighted to be an airplane and also demanded to do this over and over "again!!"

(as an aside, and in keeping with my musings on second children, take a look at Eleri, hanging out on the couch "by all herself," as Clio would say.)

"Again!" is also a favorite word in our house. We often have to declare "last time" otherwise games like that could go on forever!
