Swings



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."
