December 4 – Wonder.
How did you cultivate a sense of wonder in your life this year?

I had a baby.  Okay, well I did that in 2009, but having Squish has really brought a new sense of wonder to the world. When you are a parent the glasses through which you look at the world change drastically.

No longer are you looking at it just for yourself.  But you also see it through the point of view of a child.  A child brings so much into perspective.  They see things for the first time, they learn an amazing amount every single day.  They are filled with innocence, curiosity, and wonder.

I have so thoroughly enjoyed watching the awe and amazement in my son's face.  He has cultivated more wonder in the short time he has been in our lives than I probably have cultivated in years.
