A girl feeling rain for the first time. That is all. What many of us take for granted—sometimes even find annoying—is nothing short of a eureka moment for a 15-month-old toddler named Kayden.
According to an article in the Daily Mail, back in December the little girl stepped out in to her California front yard, where she delighted in the simplest pleasure.
'Wow,' she kept repeating to herself, even crying when it's time to dry off inside.
No surprise that this video went viral. Posted on Nicole Byon's Vimeo page, the clip has been viewed more than 600,000 times.
Watch and try to remember just for a second what it's like to experience the world with fresh eyes. There is so much beauty out there that we take for granted, and simply gloss over, in our busy lives.
We could stand to learn a thing or two—or three—from our children...
Has your child ever made you see something through 'fresh eyes'? Spill it.
