Innocence

This is my youngest grandson, at least when this picture was taken he was the youngest.  Shortly after this photo we was bumped from that position.  His world is about to be rocked by a younger cousin.  He will have to share his Aunt Jill with a new little being and I am not 100% sure how much he will like that.

Aunt Jill has always been the one that spoils her three nephews, she spends too much on Christmas, she loves to take them shopping and she loves never saying no to them.  Life as they know it, and as she knows it too will soon change.

As I look at this picture I see the innocence of this little one.  He is such a sweet little boy and full of wonder and excitement.  He loves his Grandpa Todd, and he and his brothers have brought so much to our lives.

When I see this little guy sometimes I am greeted by a big smile, sometimes he just shuts his eyes and pretends I am not there.  He is so much fun and although he is one of three Davis boys he is different than the others.  It is so wonderful to watch as each one of our kids and grand kids develop their own personality.  This little guy is so sweet and so loved.

When you see a young child and their view of the world it is refreshing.  They are inquisitive of things that we take for granted.  They trust everyone, something that over the years we have learned not to do.  They, for the most part love until they are given a reason not to.  A young child can enjoy the simple things, like a box or a small toy.

This little guy doesn't even realize how much he is loved and how much his being a part of this grandma's world means.  Each child is a miracle in their own way, it is up to us to take the time to realize and enjoy those miracles.
