I love this picture because it helps me to remember what its like to be a child. My daughter Stephanie, who took this picture in Puerto Rico, explains that Ellie loved the brightly lit snowman, but was afraid to get close. With a lot of encouragement, and promises that it would be safe, Ellie got closer & closer. The picture captures the moment when she gathered her courage, decided to take a chance, and touch the snowman. Her little hand glows in the picture.
This picture helps me remember some of the wonders of childhood, and something I call "delicious fear".
