"What if we fall?" her worried eyes found mine.
I smiled, sank to my knees and opened up my arms. "Do you remember the northern lights?" I asked her. She nodded and climbed up into my hug. I held her tight. Her tiny heartbeat fluttered against my chest.

"The same magic that makes the light dance in the sky will help us fly". I squeezed her and stood up. The sleigh, made from mountain birch by my great grandmother, sank in the snow as I climbed in still holding her. I brushed snow off the soft reindeer fur and for a moment we sat in silence looking down the hill.

"Are you ready?" She glanced back at me and gave me a short nod.
"Alright. Let's fly!!" Our weight shifting sent the sleigh flying down the hill, we jumped and suddenly we soared!

Oh thank you, thats so great to hear! Thanks for the opportunity 💕

What a beautiful story, thank you.

Thank you! Means a lot to hear 😁

Isn't it amazing how a regular day, while performing a regular activity, can harbor a fantastic moment? I have not flown over the snow, not even in a dream, but I do remember doing it on a very long jump, while jumping on my parents' new bed, many years ago now. Loved your story, @elfmyselfandi :)

Yes!! I thought i would teach my daughter about the world but it turns out she is teaching me just as much. So many precious moments 💕
Im so happy to hear that my story made you remeber a magical moment!!
