Remember that rascally shadow of Peter Pan’s? The one that Peter has to chase…
Well, I was in the kitchen when I heard a bunch of “NO!” coming from my husband’s office (which is right next to the kitchen). I looked in and saw my little 2-year-old, Josephine, standing on her daddy’s office couch trying to get rid of this stranger that was invading her space…
This pesky thing called her shadow.
It was so divinely cute that I hoped she would continue to play with her shadow until I found my phone and could record even a moment.
She did not disappoint and continued to try and persuade the shadow to leave, play hide and seek with it, and eventually extend her friendship to her shadow…
I love living through the eyes and experiences of my Littles. Every day is a new day for new discovery!
Cheers to being more tired than I could possibly imagine—and yet happier than the birds in spring!

(Apparently I published quite the NON G-rated version of Peter Pan’s shadow earlier 😉 Sorry. Picture has been deleted. Hopefully forever. I shall see. I am not too cyber savvy).
I love it! The way toddlers think and discover is so amazing and beautiful.

she still continues to play with it. when the lights are out, she goes to the wall and says, “SHADOW..SHADOW where are you?” and then i turn the lights for her and she says, “oh, there you are shadow.” it’s so fun. i shall miss when she grows 🙂
