Life Wins
Science books strewn on the front step of our house. Their owner has left them abandoned to follow a tiny pied piper - toddling boy in a white romper & a simple bib chasing barefooted his brother who whoops as he rides ahead on his tricycle.
Baby throws back his head and laughs in triumph.
He walks.
All those long tentative months of trailing fingers on furniture, crawling on sandpaper knees and grubby palms, pulling himself to stand on mama's pantleg.
Over.
He walks like a tiny stick man - side to side - hands raised as delicate rays of sunshine cut between each chubby finger.
Oh, science books. How can you compete?
Don't worry - you'll be picked up and studied when the time comes...
But for now, Life wins.
