Jaimito came running to me, breathless and excited. “Daddy, daddy! Come here, you have to see this beautiful sunrise!” I followed him down the stairs and went to the window, leaning out into the cool wet morning.
“Oh, Jaimito, it is beautiful! Thank you for getting me. I’m glad I didn’t miss it.”
He was smiling, pleased with himself, but more than that, happy and privileged to have witnessed such a nice sunrise.
I love that in this modern age, with smartphones and millisecond attention spans, my kids can still look up the sky, be amazed, and want to share it.
