I don't usually have this problem when it comes to Friday My Town Shoot Outs - I simply had too many photos. I would have had plenty even if I hadn't visited a playground in town during the week. Children are one of my favourite subjects. I love watching them spin and bounce, climb and slide.
Then, on Wednesday, I was enjoying a quiet cup of coffee in town and idly watching two little girls. They were running here and there on the grassed area outside the cafe, obviously looking for something to play with. The water fountain just dribbles a little water over its edge but the minute the girls spotted it they made a beeline for it. The mothers saw where they were headed and warned them not to get wet, or they would have to stay that way all day. (I felt like telling the littlies it was hot, if they got wet, they'd be dry in no time.)
All the little people in my family take delight in being active. I forget, sometimes, that they enjoy quiet, simple pleasures, too.
