I want to be a kid again



I miss my childhood.  I miss being a child.  I miss not worrying about everything, except maybe homework.  I miss depending on others and not myself.  I miss having my lunch packed and having afternoons off.  I miss going on long vacations, not worrying about anything.  I miss sleep over’s and spending all day playing in the pool.  I miss my grandfather’s stories and jokes.  I miss doing silly things with my mom, my grandparents, my family… and my friends.  I miss dancing to silly songs.  I miss eating sweets all day and not caring about it.  I miss climbing trees and jumping rope.  I miss running after the ice cream truck.  I miss riding my bike all over town.  I miss playing in the park.  I miss playing make-believe.  I miss the magic and the innocence…

I think... If we didn't grow, we wouldn't be able to appreciate what has been. Every little trinket or photograph, every memory of a loved one, and every heart-shaking emotion wouldn't mean a thing...

And, hey! I still do half of the things you listen on a fairly regular basis! Especially the silly dancing stuff... :)

You're right, I know. But still... I just want to play. (aka not work, worry, fret or grow old) Haha!
