Question

Email from Marilyn (Nana) to Ellie:


I have to answer this question, and thought you would be the best expert. “What habit of kids should all adults adopt?”

I’ve thought of trusting, being spontaneous, taking naps, optimism. Any thoughts?

Love,nana


Email from Ellie to Marilyn (Nana):

Those are all great, and are certainly some habits we should borrow from kids.

I'd have to add sense of wonder and joy of discovery.

Watching Teddy look up at a tree, touch the bark, totally fascinated by the texture and the smell and the sight of it - makes me realize how amazing the world really is, and that I don't appreciate it enough.


Email from Marilyn (Nana) to Ellie:

That’s a good one! Adults get so lost in business that they ignore the wonder.
