Excitement!!

Whenever I see a little boy or girl overbearing with excitement, I can’t help but smile. Maybe it’s because of the glimmer and joy in their eyes. Or maybe it’s the way they jump up and down, and cheer happily. Their innocence is adorable to admire. It reminds me of the times when I was younger, and how the simplest things made me the happiest. Simple things like receiving a new Barbie doll, going to the park, seeing and petting a dog, and  meeting new friends… So many wonderful things in our young optimistic minds. I find it sad that we don’t see the good in things as much as little kids do. Everyone is a child at heart, and seeing a child full with excitement can bring out anyone’s innocence. I remember one time, I was babysitting these kids for the first time, and I decided to bring a toy called “Marble Works.” When I walked through the door, they forgot their shyness and came right up to me. Their eyes were bulging out of their sockets with excitement. I have never seen kids so excited to play such a silly game with marbles. It was really cute to watch how interested they were assembling a tower, and how much happiness it brought them when they dropped marbles down their masterpiece. I even had fun helping them and designing new structures. Every time I came over, they always asked me if I brought that toy, and they still had the same excited expressions. It makes me excited too!
