A truly inspiring post....although I have no children of my own, I fully agree with the fact that they need to become 'more involved' in activities other than those associated to the new age world of social media and al the gadgets that support it. I enjoy interacting with my two 'great nieces' on the few occasions I get to see them....just to watch their facial expressions and realize at the same time that I was once that age (currently 4 and 2)....wondering the whole time how they will be when they reach their teen years and beyond. We all need to be kids again, and you'll quickly realize just how fun and satisfying it is when you take some time and "become one of them"!!
