Musings of Mackenzie

Laying down in bed tonight and Bear (Barrett, 3) is snuggling with me in bed. I asked him, “are you my snuggle bug?” He said yeah. So I asked, “are you my snuggle BEAR?” And he said “no, I not a snuggle bear. I a Bubba snuggle!” 😂 it was the cutest, funniest thing! Then I told him,  “I love you, Bubba snuggle!” and he replied, “I love you, Mom snuggle!” 🤣😭🥹

  The other day as we were walking the trail to the park, Rowen came up to me with this little weed in her hand, so excited and said to me, “mom! I found a seven leaf clover !! I never found a seven leaf clover before!! I’m so lucky!!” 🥹 It was the sweetest thing to see and hear her joy and enthusiasm over something so simple, combined with her innocence and positivity. It made me think how I wished that we as adults could have that same pure, uninhibited mindset and energy. If only we could tune in to our inner child. My child doesn’t know that it is only a four leaf clover that is considered “lucky” or if the plant she was holding was even a genuine clover . She perceived it with her own eyes and mindset and that was good enough for her. 🩷🍀
