OK, I admit it: I find little children charming. Not to the exclusion of babies and older kids but those 4 to 10 year-olds tend to have a delightful perspective on life and say such marvelous things!Like the Second-Grader I know whose mother told me her daughter was reading a story recently when she started giggling. The giggling gave way to laughter and Mom and Dad just had to ask, "What's so funny?" The little girl looked up from her book and replied, "That just tickled my peach!"
As if it weren't cute enough that her 'peach was tickled, it was also the way that little southern 'belle' says the word peach . . . all three syllables.
Whether it's your fancy or your peach that gets tickled, I wish you the delight of a good giggle and the pleasure of children in your life!
