Swingset Contemplation | Mahwah | April 5, 2005

Tough to explain the sheer joy it is for me to bring Erin to the swingset and push her back and forth. She’ll go from laughing to talking to excitement and back again. She’ll stare and giggle at other babies in neighboring swings. And once the pendulum comes to a rest she enters into this quiet, serene place of contemplation – that is, just before she starts licking the metal swing chains.
