Ring Around The Rosie

Maybe it’s because I’ve raised so many boys. Or maybe it’s because I just love kids. Whatever, I’m always happiest when my house is full of children of all ages laughing, yelling, jumping and playing.

As long as no one is fighting or crying, the sounds of children are the happiest sounds around. I know, some people call those sounds “noise” but I don’t. Noise is a jackhammer. Noise is the garbage truck on Friday morning. The sounds of children are not noise.

Then there’s the linear motion: Up and down, up and down, as if their feet have springs in the bottoms or sailing across the floor on a rug, down the steps in laundry baskets, and yes, even through the air occasionally. And let’s not forget the circular motion – spinning spinning spinning around until the dizziness drops them to the ground.

Did I mention that I love when the kids are all playing like that? Did I mention that the kids in question range from 2 to 20? This went on for over 15 minutes. It was a wonderful 15 minutes!

  • Hey the video is marvelous. But do tell me how many boys did you raise up? Thats true Noise is the garbage truck on Friday morning. The sounds of children are not noise. They are some thing like entertaining themselves and sometimes the noice of the children are very interesting as well.
