Never Grow Up


20. Eating a whole box of Otterpops on a summer afternoon.

19. Sleep overs with boys

18. Being so tired that you sleep in your clothes

17. Matching pajamas with your siblings

16. Wearing every piece of jewelry you own

15. Letting mom do your hair in the morning

14. Making friends with everyone in the park

13. Playing with Barbies

12. Eating candy that changes the color of your mouth

11. Kissing tag

10. Picking flowers for your mom from her own plants

9. Making music videos with your friends

8. Running after the ice cream truck

7. Writing a list to Santa

6. Sleeping with a stuffed animal

5. Night games with the whole neighborhood

4. Bubble baths with toys

3. Running to mom every time something goes wrong

2. Life was your playground. And every moment was an adventure.

1. Dad reading you to bed every night and truely believing you'd one day have your own fairytale


I miss being little. When life's biggest worry was whos red rover team you were on. Growing up sucks. Not all kisses are magic, and most boys do not live up to your expectations, but there are those times when everything, I mean love, romance, relationships, it all falls together perfectly and it's incredible. It's those moments, no matter how depressingly few and far between, that make growing up worth it.
