Dual purpose fence post:
The children on the farm are growing up. Two of them will tell you they are already grown up and I can't really argue with that. But if you look carefully you will still find reminders of their childhood around the farm. The old baling twine hanging from a shady tree still holds a remnant from their cubbyhouse.
Linking to Teresa's Good Fences.
For some reason that I can't explain I find the detritus of childhood very sad.
ReplyDeleteI can understand that, Adrian. But one can't argue with Time.
Deleteawww. childhood goes too quickly.
ReplyDeleteIt does, doesn't it, Teresa? I just don't know when my grandchildren got to be so old.
DeleteSweet to savour those precious childhood moments!
ReplyDeleteYes, Christine, we are lucky to have them.
DeleteThat is why it is so important that we love and enjoy them while small. I believe they grow faster these days.
ReplyDeleteI often think my grandchildren grew up quicker than my children did. Mind you I often thought my own children would NEVER grow up!
DeleteThe shadows of childhood linger on the fence -- very nicely shown!
ReplyDeleteI always think that baling twine looks a little forlorn, as if it's waiting for the children to return.
DeleteThanks, Felicia.
ReplyDeleteAh memories and fence posts a funny combination.
ReplyDeleteSigh... :)
ReplyDeleteoh I miss the days when I use to have kids toys and things around the garden, my kids are all grown up now.
ReplyDeleteChildren grow up all to fast...and even faster these days it seems.
ReplyDeleteAh Time Passages....children do grow up (far to quickly it seems) - What fun reminders of their childhood on the fence.
