The picture of the kids on the swing brings back great memories of my childhood! Running as fast as we could to able to grab a swing, as it was a thrill to see others wait for their turn! N swinging as high as high could be – like the boy in mid air!! Childhood bliss…Here’s mine – https://myheart2heart.blog/2020/04/21/cock-a-doodle-doo/
