what a week pt2

I have been house sitting for the past couple of weeks, and in the backyard they have a trampoline. My first week I was too busy to even give the trampoline a second glance, but Sunday evening as the sun had just set and the plants had all been watered I decided to try it out.

Woo Hoo...can I just how much fun trampolining is?! I bounced and jumped and bounced some more. It was so exhilarating (yes, I know I don't get out much!!!) Something about it released this rush of freedom. Half way through just plain old jumping, I decided to get a little adventerous and wanted to add in dropping to my knees then bouncing immediately back to my feet. The first couple of times I chickened out, and I couldn't do it. When I finally did, I laughed out loud and was transported to a place where nothing can hold you down, where the worries fade in light of the presence, basically back to being a child again.

I have yet to have another bounce, I unfortunately have been a little under the weather this week, and haven't exactly felt up to jumping around, but as I took a walk into the foothills this evening I thought about being a child, actually about my childhood...
