Through the eyes of a child

Mckenzie went to her first live animal action today.  Her eyes were wide like saucers and her mouth was as wide as it would open as soon as the auctioneer opened his mouth.  "What is he saying?"  she asked.   All I could understand was the price and nothing else.  He kept this up.  Now she wants to see Grandpa bid on something, anything.  We really didn't need a rabbit.  They were cute.  How about a large chicken?  No, don't need that either.  Eventually some Ginny hens came up, he bid and won so fast no one realized he did it till he was done.  Mckenzie had a grin on her face from ear to ear.  It was special and we got to share that.
It really must be something to see things like children see them.  The world is always bright and cheery, not the way it really is.  The next time you see something that is brand new, take time to enjoy it like a child would and savor the moment....
