While waiting for her birthday party guests to arrive, my oldest granddaughter enjoyed some spontaneous dancing in the backyard, adorned with her spanky new unicorn rubber boots.
Scotland's national animal, the Scots love the unicorn for its untamable independence and for being notoriously difficult to capture or conquer.
That's reason enough to respect this mythical creature, but inspired by my granddaughter I am also learning "unicornory" which I define as the way a 4-year-old reminds me to pay attention to and enjoy life's simple pleasures: sunshine, warmth, music, laughter, sparkles inside your birthday cake, being together, and being alive for this one unconquerable life.

What a magnificent photo! Unicornory forever!
Happy birthday to your granddaughter! Long live the unicorns.
That is so sweet! ❤️
Happy birthday to your granddaughter. Release your inner child and join the dance.
...becoming an adult is highly overrated!
😊
A dollopy dose of unicornory here and there is the best medicine!
The skirt and boots are very unicorny.

Mhhmm. Would you want to relive childhood, no matter how good it was?
Unconquerable life. Thought-provoking.
Especially if the unicorn is glittery!
Hmm. Terrific question. I'd like to relive childhood moments, but more than that? Nope, not so good. You?
Codex: Staying on the simple things and the superficial. No. A developmental stage with similar frustrations as adults. Joy and awe at the discovery of the world and limitations imposed by adults for obvious reasons in hindsight. The human condition at all stages of life. Still play with art supplies and eating all the chips and cheese wasn't as great as I thought it would be.;) everything has its time.
Codex: I've used glitter when I painted some galaxies. Word to the wise: DONT SNEEZE!
Playing like a child:

Happy birthday to your granddaughter. Four is a wonderful age and we can learn and relearn a lot from four-year-olds.
Haha, everyone should enjoy this unicornory: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fo6t5Fg24fM
Thanks, Codex!
Sweet and charming 💕 photo. Happy Birthday to your dear granddaughter.
I loved your granddaughters fashion! Wouldn't you love that stress free feeling again? Just to enjoy all around you without a worry. I miss that
How great is that shot of your granddaughter!!!
Wonderful photo! Unicornory, it should be a movement. The little ones teach us so much, mostly to stay in the moment.
Love this photo. Happy birthday to your granddaughter. Warm greetings from Montreal ❤️
My 66 year old wife is full of unicornery! I will be watching TV and she will stand in front of me and start dancing a jig. Totally annoying and amusing at the same time!
