Watching my little one enjoy the Kermis (carnival) in Leuven today was such a pleasure. The weather was fine and I had just recovered from a flu-like thing this week.
I took this shot while the mini ferry's wheel was turning. As you can see, his smile here is in between excitement and fear (I think the wheel has turned about 3 times at this time). What I like about this shot is that it captured his struggle -- and the show of teeth and waving of the hand indicates that joy has won over fear.
This sounds cliche, I know, but still I'd like to say that watching children so happy like this is happiness enough.
My little one was hyper today, especially because he had friends who tagged along. It was his first time to take a real ride. Not that we didn't let him before, but he just wasn't into it. Today was different. He was braver, I guess. And I just took a step back and watched him take it all in. Such pure happiness.
