Carpe Diem #941 Heart The blue-eyed, blond haired boy stole my heart when he was just a kicking fetus. The love continued to grow as we watched him coo, then talk his special talk. Grandaddy, (Nandad) always let him play with the tool box. Screwdrivers were i-dikers. Caboose was bagoose. The Playskool Tyke Bike was and is nooden-nooden. When looking for someone, he would say their name in a sing song, quizzical fashion while shaking his head in a negative fashion. He now uses words he learned during his college and grad school years two decades ago. These words are not nearly as fun as those precious made up toddler words. thunderclap acts as a bossy stormhorn rainbrella time! © Janice 'petra domina' Adcock Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI
I love this, Janice. My grandson used to love tea time, choosing from my antique tea cups in the curio my great-aunt gave me. One day I invited a friend with her daughter and they had their tea party...4 and 5 years old, they were so adorable. You've brought back such fond memories with your haiku. Thank you :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems that most children play tea party. I loved my Aunt Lillis who was really my great aunt. She always had time to play with me at the little table and my tea set. Then a couple of years ago I did the same with my great niece. Good times and good memories for all. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your memory. Love from the Texas Two!

ReplyDeleteAs children we dream of the time to be grown. As elderly we spend time living in our memories.
