The Good Life
This is the good life according to Roman Kruse:
Soft sand and crunchy leaves
A dog to fuss and snuggle and annoy
Something sturdy to stand next to and push/walk across the room
Any kind of ball to crawl to
Clear skies or cloudy skies or rainy skies
The taste of fruit (but not grapes) and a bite of whatever you’re holding (not lettuce)
Good friends to walk him to all of the boats at Fisherman’s so he can pat test them
The yellow flowers that smell like popcorn
The simple wonder that is a brick wall (how could I forget that wonder)
A good book to read/tear up
A bike (any bike)
A car (any car)
A game (any game)
Sitting on dad’s shoulders way up high
Being rocked and sang to sleep in my arms
Being naked (preferably all the time)
The freedom to move and explore
The promise to do it again tomorrow
