The years are quiet and good, and the Yihe Wetland Park experience on winter weekends
On Sunday, December 3, 2023, after breakfast in the morning, my husband and I took our son to Yihe Wetland Park to play, and it felt like I hadn't been there for a long time. With my son's skipping rope and basketball, I thought about playing sports with my son.
But when I arrived at the place, the warm sun shone on it, and I suddenly spread joy. I went to the square with my son first, to the river, on the runway, to the lotus pond, to the wooden plank road, basking in the warm sun while playing, without a trace of wind, and the air was fresh, which was really comfortable.
On the square. The empty square, with blue and yellow, and several colors covering the large square, is a stark contrast between the bustle of people in summer and the desertion of now. I realized that I hadn't drunk my son for too long. The son was jumping rope in the square while moving in the direction of the river. I followed my son with a basketball, thinking that I would play when I had time, practice Xi, and hold it when I didn't have time.
By the river, my son came to the long-lost river, take a look here, look at it, there is no one by the river, only the fishermen not far away, they are not fishing by the river, they are hanging near the lotus pond sheltered from the wind, and I don't know if I can catch it on a cold day. When I came to the big boat by the river with my son, my son said that he was still holding the chain, and I said that he would not be swept away by the water. I said that when I was a child, my father often got on this big ship with you, and now it's all rotten and not decent, but there are also footprints of your growth here, and it is worth remembering.
On the track, my son and I competed, I played basketball, he jumped rope, while moving forward, while playing, happy like a bird flying for the first time, very fresh. Once he practiced two basketballs and dribbled at Xi the same time, he practiced very actively, his interest was mobilized, and the little boy who played sports was handsome, and he felt very proud in his heart, this is the eldest son of his own family. I thought that I would take my son out more on weekends to experience the changes of nature, feel the appearance of winter, and exercise at the same time, improve the body's immunity, and bring my son childhood memories. Most of the leaves on the side of the road have turned yellow, and only some of the green trees on the side of the road are still green, and many of them don't know their names.
When I arrived at the lotus pond, my son said that it was strange to come here, and the fish could listen to the beautiful ** and appreciate it quietly. The deeper he walked into the lotus pond, the more his son liked it, and he was like discovering a new continent, playing happily with the different thicknesses and frost in the lotus pond and the reeds on both sides of the curved big stone road. He used the handle of the skipping rope to break the frost on the side, then picked it up and threw it on the big rock, watching the ice break into small pieces and play with pleasure. He kept repeating this action, and he was not too cold or too cold to freeze his hands. Looking at the father who follows his son closely, and the son who has been communicating with his father, forming a beautiful picture, I think this is what the years look like.
I remember when I was a child, when the weather was very cold, much colder than now, and there was no current heating, there were not many heating facilities, we were not afraid of cold or freezing, we often went outside the house to play in the snow, went to the pond to skate, went to the eaves to pick long ice ridges, and with my friends, we had good memories of childhood. Now the partners have their own lives, and they hardly see each other much, but the memories of childhood will not fade away, and will always be in our minds.
Today's children have more things to play, but there are a lot of natural, heartwarming, and exclusive memories of childhood. Parents are busy with their work and ignore their children's personal feelings, which makes today's children have a lot less things. As a parent, pay attention to accompany your children to get in touch with nature, accompany your children to feel the changes of the seasons, and experience the beauty of life.
I noticed that there is an angler in a place more than a dozen steps away, the fisherman holds a mobile phone in one hand, while guarding the boom, leisurely fishing fish, although there are few fish in the season now, but they still appreciate the fun of fishing as always, all year round, regardless of the hot summer, or the cold winter, which does not care if the mosquitoes are flying, or the flies are scurrying, I admire the perseverance of these fishermen, anyway, I will not be so windy and sunny fishing by the river.
On the boardwalk. The son asked his father to fold the slightly thicker reeds, lie on the railing of the wooden plank road in the center, and beat the ice in the pond with the reeds. My husband and I watched our son play in the sun, surrounded by tall reeds, and the sound of wild ducks rang in our ears, and there were reeds in the reeds, and there were also in the river, and the rest was quiet.
As the sun slowly rises, the sun is getting warmer and warmer, and more and more people come to the river to play, some fishing, some families play with children, some sell rock sugar gourds, some sell toys on the roadside, although there are not many people, but from time to time people pass by to bring vitality to this leisurely riverside.
We didn't go too far, we didn't go to the place of the rubber dam in the south, and after walking the lotus pond and the wooden plank road, we walked back, and saw that the wooden plank road on the east side of the lotus pond to the east of the river island was also doing a few fishermen, maybe these places were warm, and the fish could come up to bite the fish food. In the bucket of the angler, there are large and small hanging fish, and a small number of fish are swimming around. Just like a person's mood, it is not a fish that hangs, but a mood.
Walking back on the runway, there are also a few fishermen on the east side of the runway, and there are wild ducks swimming in twos and threes by the river, crying from time to time, adding a bit of interest to the riverside at noon, and the harmony between people and nature and animals.
My son and I were decorated with bicycles under the big willow tree on the side of the track, lying down, listening to the ** released by the riverside guard, basking in the sun, resting, my son was eating to replenish energy, I didn't want to leave, I really felt like spring.
Thinking that my daughter will come back from vacation, I must bring my daughter and son to play again, experience the unique feeling of winter, and make up for the shortcomings caused by my daughter's absence from home.
Praise that the conditions are good now, and the two rivers of Yi River and Wen River flow through the east and west sides of the county, protecting the people of Yinan County like two moats. The Yihe and Wenhe wetland parks built have now become a good place for outdoor leisure for the people of the county, and the people are enjoying the material abundance at the same time, but also enjoying the spiritual satisfaction.
As one of them, while enjoying a good life, what reason is there not to live well, build your own small family, achieve a better family, and do your best for the prosperity and strength of the country?Home is the smallest country, the country is tens of millions, only the country is good, the country is good, the country is better.
Those beautiful scenery that only exist in winter
