It started when we visited H-Mart. JJ had asked me which color he should pick: white or green. I had no idea so I said green. Then he started hopping on only the green tiles.
I didn’t teach him this stuff but it came out. I remember my younger days and creating a game out of it myself to jump only from a shadow to another shadow, or to step only in particular tiles or shapes. Here is JJ doing the very same thing but I hadn’t even mentioned it! I was so enticed on how kids can play and how certain habits and ways of playing just get passed down genetically.
I played with him of course and he’d complain every now and then how green tiles seemed so far from each other. It’s really good to be a kid… and I am so glad that JJ is enjoying his childhood… even if he doesn’t quite realize it. I hope he and Anna will continue to have fun being kids. It only lasts a short time anyway…
