Imagination

The other day my 2 year old put on some of my clothes, she has started to play dress up; but she caught me off guard when she walked up to me, 'dressed up' and put her hand out to shake mine and was talking jibberish and some english words.

It took me a minute to realize that she was ' role playing' and that my little Lucy has embarked on the method of using her imagination and was pretending to be 'someone' else and was meeting me. Once again I am in complete awe of my child and it brings me back to my childhood and the glorious days of 'pretending'.

Imaginations are a gift and without them, the world would be very boring!
