I really love swings.
Today I raced a group of elementary school kids to the swings. I got there first, only to turn around and realize that no one else was running to them. I had my pick of the swings. This is not how we did it back in my day.
A tiny girl eventually joined me at the swings. I pumped my legs as hard as I could, trying not to slam my adult legs into the ground beneath me.
She and I swung in sync for a moment. She turned to me and said "I love going to the sky,"
I said, "Me too."
I think this is still my favorite post of yours. I love it. It makes me think I'm a kid again running towards those swings trying to beat everyone for the first chance to swing on them. Pumping my legs as hard as I could to try and reach the clouds and go over the top. This is a great post. :)
