My tiny niece says this is where the mermaids live. She is sure there is a beautiful palace hidden beneath those gnarled roots. It is a bit too deep for us to wade over to see for sure. Every now and then, she says she sees them hiding and smiling at us. They like humans who pick up the garbage others leave behind. We are friends of the forest when we do this, you see.
The mermaids even left a beautiful little heart for us to see, as we waded toward the bank of the creek.
The world is full of wonder and magic when viewed through the eyes of a child!

I heartily agree that looking at the world through the eyes of a child is a blessing.
