hearts rainbows stars february1710_1 february1610_1 This morning I visited my friend Tracy, a mother of three boys. She told me a story about a little girl that came to visit the other day, instead of humming the tune of Star Wars or making battling sounds, this sweet ray of sunshine danced in a circle, singing hearts rainbows stars, over and over. Just yesterday the feeling of being about ten rushed through me, I could feel and sense what it was to not have any worries, to think I would live forever, to not know what it is to get a wrinkle or even care. I think it was the time of day, the sun was coming in the window just so, I had eaten a Jell-O cup for a snack, it was wonderful and sad at the same time.

It's definitely difficult to be a grown-up.

i need to have a "10 year old live forever not know what's it's like to get a wrinkle or even care" moment ASAP! Do you think a cup of Jell-O Tapioca could do the trick!

Fully relate! So happy to have childhood memories but so sad to realize that those days are gone. Some day I just wish I could capture the little girl in me and stay soft, worry free, happy and full of song and dance. Beautiful post! xo
