 I swear my son would just walk around the yard and play with the grass and leaves from dawn until dusk if I let him. https://v.nostr.build/39kk.mov  
 So no need to tell him to touch grass?

 Let him 
 Lol, I wish I had the time, but we spend an inordinate amount of time outside anyway. 

Maybe not too much longer we will have the fence and new porch and I’ll be able to let him just kinda do his thing while I’m working downstairs.  Really want the sunroom cut out and done though. 

This house is a never ending project 
 Satoshi is the same way

Spends all day chasing sticks and never tires of it.

 Lol he's waving bye at the end like he's gonna go do it! 

"Bye dad! Go and narrate some more audio books or whatever it is you do all day. I'm off to touch grass, see you at dinner!" 
 That’s exactly what that was 🤣 
 Oh my precious heart!! 🤗🧡
He knows what’s up! 
 Lol sweet boy 💪 
 My boy shoveled sand on the beach for four hours straight, supervised by granny who has the patience. Just sand back and forth.  
 This is the way 
 Let him 😆 
 Yay for bare feet! 
 Aww...so adorable!!😍😍 
 Spent an hour with my grandson yesterday 'sitting in the grass', climbing the wood chip pile and looking for sticks. Best use of my time in weeks! 
 It's time to get him a tiny leafblower and lawnmower!

 The best place for the first steps 
 Awesome, same here, no toy can beat sticks, leaves, rocks and dirt! 
 Adorable! 
 Children crave nature 

We can learn a lot from children 
 Everything is so beautifully amazing to the mind of a child. Every thing (and no thing) is significant.

Becoming a father allows you to see the world from this non judgemental perspective again.

Ever notice that they'll point at things you don't even have a label for & ask "what's that?"

They've yet to become conditioned to the thingyverse & sadly I don't think you can prevent it. 
 Cute rascal! 
 Blessed be the fruit.
🦧 
 amazing what you can do without a screen in front of you 
 I love it! 
 Sensory stimulation and exploration….if only more adults would be content with doing the same!

Oh to be an innocent child again! 
 I take care of my nephews sometimes and try to keep up.  Nothing like the energy of the young.  Unlimited energy. 
 That's Rad!
