Wisdom of Four

[Geckmumto3]

Sharing from my four year old. He came home with this picture yesterday from school.



It is more complicated that his usual, so I made a point of asking him about it. He told me a long, harrowing tale of the family crossing rope bridges over deep chasms, enduring hot lava and underground monsters. This picture was a "map" of his story, he said. I expressed some concern over the amount of trouble our family was in during this story, and how scary it must have been for all of us. He shrugged, pointed out the smiles on the faces, and said, "It doesn't matter, Mum... We all did it together, so it doesn't matter."

Love four year olds and the simplicity of their wisdom.
