The fountain at the library

There's a fountain at the library near where my mother-in-law used to live. I used to frequent this library with my kids when they were littler. They used to love to toss coins in the fountain and make wishes. I enjoyed doing the same with them. Earlier this week we were in the area and my kids wanted to stop there. We made a wish and enjoyed the peacefulness of the fountain for a little bit. It was really nice and a bit nostalgic. 

Joy in the simple things

This is a gorgeous fountain in an area where my family used to live. We don't live too far from here now but not as close as we once did. The thing is though, my kids and I LOVE this fountain. It is pretty and tranquil! My kids love to toss coins in here and make wishes. So do I. They make their wishes every single time we pass this fountain and I often do but not every time. 

Anyway, I passed this fountain on my own recently. I was in a bit of a hurry so I didn't dig for coins to make a wish but I did snap a picture. This fountain makes me smile and I know it's the same for my kids. There truly is joy in the small things that become tradition.
