My toddler loves wearing wellies. And why wouldn't she - they are meant
for puddle-jumping which is the best thing since sliced bread as far as
she is concerned.
After a big rain fall we often go out puddle hunting for some puddle
jumping. No puddle is deemed too insignificant. It doesn't matter if it
is on the side of the road, or in the park. It doesn't matter if it
gives just one splash before it is gone, or thoroughly manages to soak
your bum and your mum. It is all good.
So, on our puddle hunting exploration we found a little puddle in the park. I thought it was far too small and the splash far too unsatisfactory. But my daughter zoned in on it and there was no way to get her walk further in a search for a better puddle.
Being happy with what you have and finding joy from the little things in life, I guess that is something that many adults could learn from. I know I could.
It is all about those little things in life. Little things like getting new wellingtons from Muddy Puddles and immediately insisting on wearing them. And then
insisting on wearing them every day (must be a very comfortable pair!).
They were sturdy enough for a long walk in the forest, with a good grip on the soles
so no muddy paths stopped us. Being quite long on the legs I am sure
will serve us well and last several growth spurts. After much,
practically everyday, use and much bashing around the house they have
lasted in a beautiful condition, with the Louboutin-like splash of red still brightening the soles for those gloomy, muddy, welly-wearing days.
