ahhh nostalgia....please comment!
i used to love being a kid. things were so simple. since i turned 20 i've been thinking about this post and now's as good a time as any to do it. i watch my neice and nephew and i see in them so many things i used to see in myself in the way they act and what they say it's so hilarious and cliche but i miss being a kid. again...it was simple, but i can only say that in retrospect because when you are a kid things don't seem so simple. some of my favorite things about being a kid are (and this is not exclusive) getting new shoes and thinking that they make you run faster and jump higher (i love it! my nephew was saying that just the other day and he's only 4. i remember saying that in like 1st grade! lol.). also cuddling. i used to love to cuddle with my parents and now it's just wrong and i know i can cuddle with other people but i have no one to cuddle with even friends. *sigh* lol. in addition i loved getting piggyback rides and riding on people's backs like a horse. i miss taking all the cushions off the couch and building a fort with them on the couch and crawling around in it. i miss playing hide and seek and taking those foam chairs that turn into mattress thingies and riding/sledding down the stairs on top of them (broke a few windows in the french door that way! lol). i miss sleepovers and camping in the living room (maybe this was just me but we used to set up the tent in the living room and sleep in it! lol. i'm weird!) oh there's so many things i could go on forever. tell me i'm not the only one though! please post/comment and tell me what you miss about childhood!
