No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!

Yesterday, Connor and I shared one of the best moments ever in our 16 months together. To you, it will seem so simple, but to Connor and I - it was so great...

We jumped on the bed!

Seems so simple doesn't it?

We were holding hands-connected as one -jumping in perfect unison- staring at each other and laughing so hard that it hurt. I can't remember the last time I jumped on a bed. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard...

When we stopped to catch our breath, it felt like we had just shared the most amazing secret. I experienced childhood again and he experienced it for the first time.

It sounds stupid but I don't care. I want to remember that feeling forever...

What is it about jumping on beds that the kids love so much? We used to have a very, very old iron bedstead with an over-bouncy mattress, and my two just couldn't get enough of bouncing around. You'll be buying a trampoline next...Love the blog.
