The place my partner spent his childhood is so beautiful. His parents own a cherry farm. I am so glad that Oliver has this place to run around in. I remember playing down at the creek at my Grandparents house.. It was such a big part of my childhood. So many memories playing among' the nature. The creek is all dried up now, I think. I would not really know. I have not been there in years. I want Oliver to have a childhood like mine. Not drowned out by technology, like so many kids these days seem to be. I want him to enjoy running around in the fresh air, getting dirty, scraping knee's and climbing tree's. This farm and his side of the family will help that, they are adventurous, nature driven people. I think myself really lucky to be apart of his family and I'm sure he thinks that about mine. My family grew up with such strong family values. We all really admire one another and get along incredibly well. I always think about how lucky we are to have been blessed with Oliver, but today, I am thinking about how lucky Oliver is to be blessed with our families. My heart feels heavy for the children that don't get this. The simplicity of a happy childhood. A loving, happy, funny family. As adults, it's our duty to make sure that earths children are happy, safe and loved. I'm so happy and blessed that I am able to provide that for Oliver. This kid is going to be great.
