As I sit here waiting on the tator tots (favorites), I decided that it was time for my first blog and it was only fitting that it was a question that came from my beautiful 4 year old son Korbin.
He asked me, "Daddy can I draw and color on your arm?", I looked at him with a bewildered look on my face and said to him, "what do you mean?", his response, "your pictures never wash off like mine (he likes washable tattoos) and I never want them to go away like yours, they're' bootifool' Daddy! When are the tator tots going to be done?"
You knowit's interesting how kids see things and maybe we all need to just take a step back once-in-while, take a deep breath and look at things a little more innocent and beautiful & not try to be too adult and just love the things around us that make us human.
I love my son more than life and the Raven on my back respresents my son because afterall, his name means black haird raven but a raven also means in Native Amertican (my mother is Kaina and my father is Italian) lore gives us clearification to what we don't see or don't want to see and with kids they see it as it is. Adults, a lot of times we don't.
So as the Raven speaks of clearification, so does our children because to them, afterall, what is; is, what is.
My son gives me the clearification as to what's truly beautiful in my life, he is.
"Daddy, are the tator tots done yet?"
