Yesterday I´ve had a very funny moment. I was in the room with the boy (7 years) I´m looking after at the moment and was looking him trying to tie his shoes. Not a very special thing at all, normaly. But you know, about 6 month ago, when I got to that family, he wasn´t able to do that. And yesterday I wanted to help him, but he said he would like to do it himself.
And so I was standing there and just watching him. Watching that little boy, so concentrated of what he was doing. His greatest challenge at that moment was just to tie his shoes in a good way, I know there was no other thought in his mind. I was standing about 5 minutes there. Trying to imagine how it was for me at this age. But I couldn´t. Unfotunately I have problems in remembering. But I know that life was so easy. The time had passed so slowly. I can remember, I was sad every christmas because it ever took so long time to the next. Or to my birthday. And now, the time is running. Ha, running is no expression to explain how fast it goes by. I´m planning in years. When I was 7 planned in weeks in maximum, if not even in days or hours, whats more probable.
But there are so many things we could make easier, couldn´t we?!?! You haven´t to do everything in a complicated way, just because of the fact that you´re an adult. So many things would be easier just doing them like a child...
... like to tie a shoe.
Please read my first blog to help me find Ander, too! I think, that´s a thing that could be easy, too ;-)
