Through a Child’s Eyes

March 8th, 2010

I was showing one of my nieces a picture from a recent trip. It was dusk, and there were birds perched in the trees in a beautiful park. She looked at the shot and jumped back in her seat.

“What is that?”

“What?”

“That!” She said pointing.

“Lamps?”

She laughed, relieved, “Oh, I thought it was eyes!”

And then I started laughing.

She’s very smart, my niece. She’s almost eight, and it’s obvious she’s got an active imagination.

It was in that moment that she showed me why I love writing for children. It’s why “Another Place In Time” and the Brubal stories have such a special place in my heart. Not only are they for families to share, but they also spark the imaginations of children — taking my visions and making them even bigger!

If I had to look into the future, I think I’d see a lot more projects for children and their families.
