Sometimes I want to be a kid again
Sometimes I want to be a kid again. I want to go back to the time when:
-- Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-mo." -- Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming "do over!" -- Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "Monopoly." -- Catching fireflies could happily occupy an entire evening. -- Being old referred to anyone over 20. -- The net on a tennis court was the perfect height to play volleyball and the rules didn't matter. -- It was magic when dad would "remove" his thumb. -- Nobody was prettier than Mom. -- Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better. -- It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the "big people" rides at the amusement park. -- Getting a foot of snow was a dream come true. -- Abilities were discovered because of a "double-dog-dare." -- Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30-minute ads for action figures. -- "Oly-oly-oxen-free" made perfect sense. -- Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles. -- The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a team. -- War was a card game. -- Water balloons were the ultimate weapon. -- Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle. -- Older siblings were the worst tormentors but also the fiercest protectors.
