Sunday at Five

I am convinced that five-years old is self-actualization.  After five, life gets complicated, complex, and downright unfair, but at five we are old enough to function independently, enjoy life fully, and question endlessly…all while running.  Here’s an example of what I observed my little boy doing last Sunday:

We rode bikes to the school playground, no brakes, full speed, after he’d been riding up and down the sidewalk all day long.  The training wheels just came off, literally four days prior.  Upon arrival, he asked for permission and a playmate on the climbing wall, then this is what I heard through his grin, “The glider!  Can you lift me up?!  Dad, climb up this ladder! Oh, can I do the monkey bars?!  TIRE SWING!”  Each statement separated only by the time it took his little legs to run from piece to piece.  On the way home, “I can’t wait to fire up the grill!”  His words, his excitement about my ritual of summer!
These days, when science has given us a lot of solutions, treating erectile condition is not a big deal at the moment and it commander cialis looks to be here to stay. In addition, avoid having meal at bedtime, since it can put an extra pressure on esophagus sphincter, due to which heartburn may https://www.unica-web.com/graphics/1981-images/unica50years011.pdf cheap levitra occur. But in canadian cialis no prescription click to find out this 21st century, this health problem can be a cause of decreased libido. This is why unlimited male improvement trials viagra price unica-web.com are so successful.
Later we headed out for our inaugural spring trip to the village ice cream shop.  After noticing and discussing each piece of bubble gum bitten from a dripping, pink cone, it was time to go home.  He skips, seriously, skips through the parking lot, remainder of a cone in his right hand while his left arm does continuous reverse windmills and he doesn’t miss a beat of rhythm.  Who has such stamina and zeal for life but a five year old?  I’m glad he’s there to inspire me and maybe share a little of his energy.
