Jon has always loved rocks! From a young age he has been fascinated by them. He loves to roll large rocks to see what's under them and will ask others to move them if he can't. Smaller rocks he will roll down a large hose and listen to them tumble along. Sometimes he will ask to have the rocks moved to a new location.Nothing like a pile of rocks to excite this boy!
I don't like to see what's under a rock ...especially if they are crawly things ... but boys will be boys ...
ReplyDeleteI'm with Anneliese...there's always some crawly things under there :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Jon would get very excited at the ocean turning over rocks and seeing the crabs scurry away.
ReplyDeleteThere is some profound wisdom in this young man.
ReplyDeleteHe finds the pleasures in the simple things in life.......we can all learn from that.
I love rocks too, especially in amongst the flower beds..it looks so nice.
His perception and understanding are far beyond what we can think about. When would any of us try to move rocks, except for landscaping purposes. We'd get a excavator..Next time I know who to call.
ReplyDeleteJonathan and I both love the outdoors. I think it's cute when he asks me to move a rock for him that he can't move. Ha Ha....like his older sis is stronger than him. Love you Jon!
ReplyDeleteoh . .boys do love rocks. I've seen them carried around in the back of tricylces and wagons and the bigger the better. Why are they never content to huck a small rock ..that's what I want to know.
ReplyDeleteRocks make the best of toys...whatever age the boys! "Leave no rock unturned"...not a bad motto.
ReplyDeleteHe's a rockstar! And I love the new look of your blog!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what it is that is so universal about children loving rocks. Jon just never outgrew his love of them... I love it!
ReplyDeleteJon and I have something in common. When I was digging out my gardens, I was thrilled with the big rocks I dug up. I spent many hours rolling those treasures from the back yard to the front yard. I wish Jon had been here to help me.
ReplyDeleteI was not too excited about seeing what was under them, though! Too many creepy things for me.
