Today AD was playing at the kitchen table while I was cleaning up and NW was asleep. He got out a couple of our board games and invented his own games for each.
He enjoys watching Star Wars movies. We have a play lightsaber that he will play with and pretend that he is a Jedi Knight while watching the movie.
He also enjoys the Harry Potter movies that we let him watch. He often finds a stick of some kind (even if it's just a pencil) and pretends it's a magic wand.
He pretends he is a NFL football player while watching games on TV.
It's fun to watch him play because he always seems to be telling a story with what he is playing with, whether it is his cars, animals or other toys.
I'm grateful for imagination. So many wonderful things in this world wouldn't exist if people didn't have imagination and the drive to make those "imaginary" things become real.
