@Ria- yes they were not busy

@rhodora- oh I like the coloring book idea.

@Amomandmore- yes learning new things like how a child discovers life unfolding.

Yes, I can relate with you about finding a common time with our kids in their early 20s. And not just common time, but good timing also — when they’re free from stresses, deadlines and bad moods. It’s good that they’ve both not found any bf/gf yet, so I could say they are still wholly ours.

My ways to nuture the child in me: learning new lessons each day, discovering new ways of doing daily tasks, a little bit of humor, being creative with scarcities, not being afraid to take risks and starting anew (even at my age!)

Hay, me too - I do a lot of reminiscing these days. All my three kids are home right now - and how I love it whenever I see them romping on our bed - teasing, playing - just like the good old days. They never seem to outgrow their childhood, I guess. Two sons in their 20s and one teenage daughter - para pa ring mga bata.

How have I kept my childlike qualities alive? Well, I still do coloring books with my daughter on lazy rainy days.
