Children are great at noticing the things that matter. Our morning walk usually produces souvenirs of pretty leaves or strange sticks that end up on the kitchen counter or bedroom dressers. Today there was a worm, brought to the surface by an early morning rain, squirming along the asphalt path towards the grass. Worms are as brown and unattractive as you can get, but both kids noticed it and just had to watch it and ask why it was doing what it was doing.
In this season we trample over thousands of leaves that have fallen from the mothertree, and I have to wonder what makes one stand out from another. You ask a grown-up to go outside and get a red leaf. He'll probably grab one of the first ones he sees. You as the same of a child, he'll walk and walk and walk and walk until...this one!
May you notice the differences in the sames.
