Through a Child's Eyes...Fireworks and the 4th of July

By
Real Estate Agent with COLDWELL BANKER TOMLINSON

July 4th, 2009.  It was a beautiful night in the Northwest and the place we call home, Pullman, WA.  I wanted to share these pics as I watched my daughter taking pictures of the Fireworks Display that was held at Sunnyside Park.  There is something magical about children and fireworks.  Their eyes are wide open, their faces awestruck as they see the display of lights above them.  Some children are sitting on their parent's laps while others run around with sparklers wanting to feel like they're part of the action.  It's really a special treat.  There is so much to celebrate, our Independence Day, but for children and especially mine, it is a night she wants to capture and hold onto for a while to come.

Olga, I agree with Vegas Bob, she did a great job.  It wouldn't hurt any of us to stop once in a while and look at things like a child does!

My children love the lights - all except my daughter.  My daughter thinks the loud noise is not worth the pleasure of the lights.  But the rest are smitten!

Renae!  It's true.  I remember when my daughter would bury her head in my shoulder now she's the photographer.

Dan and Rachel...you're absolutely right.  The joys of being a child.  Thanks for the comment.

Awesome! I love 4th of July - my youngest was born on July 3rd even though his due date was July 4th.  That is because the dr's didn't want to work that day so they induced me.
