Will you catch me?


Almost every baby loves to be picked and tossed up in the air. The laugh, they giggle, and their littel faces light up when dad comes overs, swooshes down and throws them up in the air. The look at Dad'd face as if to say- again daddy, again. There is no fear of falling. There is no hatred of not being in control. There is no fear of pain. In fact it is sure pleasure. Kids actually like the feeling of falling...of falling into their father's arms. Each time they fall, they aren't hurt by hitting the ground below them, unless they have a monster for a father or a father who has poor eye hand coordination. Yes, each time a child falls in this way- he equates it with trust, with love, and with affection.
