When we got our Christmas tree this year, Mason spent a good deal of time, while his dad was cutting down our especially wonderful and monster sized tree, just being a kid. He played in the dirt. He actively went through the farm looking for trees his size and for the one we actually chose. The actual tree we got this year was about 15' with a huge trunk and with lots of wonderful branches. But after we had made the selection he looked around for things to fascinate him. As all boys his age he was interested in the pebbles on the gravel road. He was interested in the other people. He was interested in the vast varieties of dirt samples - the size and color and muddiness which are often lost on adults. But he did not miss all those things. And what is more he brought us into his explorations. Showing us all those things with the wonder that they should be due.
