Cattails remind me of my childhood. The town I grew up in had a millpond filled with these. I remember waiting all summer, spying them as I speed past on my bicycle, always watching them from the corner of my eye...anticipating when they would puff up and explode their seeds out into the world. These days, when I see them I am reminded of a simpler time, a time when I had no cares and my days were spent in the company of friends and laughter came easily. As an adult I sometimes forget how pleasant and simple life can become when we choose to see it through a child's eyes.
