Happy Labor Day Weekend!<\/p>\n
For the weekend, my cousin and his kids came by to say hi and hangout. It was fun and a bit mind-boggling. Simply because kids are interesting creatures. I love kids, but I’ve been told that it looks like I hate kids. Rude. Well either way I miss them and here’s how they return my love:<\/p>\n
“Should I eat the pancakes?”<\/p>\n
“Yes! They are poisonous!”<\/p>\n
“I feel loved.”<\/p>\n
But then, this happened:<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd don\u2019t forget that I have 15 girlfriends!\u201d<\/p>\n
And the number just keeps going up and up, but then down. How strange. And his older brother only has one, but he gives her dead birds as a gift. That boy is a catch. I would love to sit and talk with a little kid or one of them. They work in such strange ways. I wish I could remember what it was like being a kid. Keeping my all of my thoughts in a journal.<\/p>\n
Then I thought, why is it okay for boys to have girlfriends at a young age, but not girls?<\/p>\n
No one knew the answer and I don’t want to ask my dad. I suppose some things are better with no answers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
