What if...

What if we all acted like my 18-month old daughter?


1. We would run, not walk, everywhere and burn lots of calories.

2. We would only eat exactly what we're hungry for when we're hungry for it, which would also cause our waistlines to shrink.

3. We would find joy in running around the house naked.

4. We would laugh at everything, even if it really wasn't that funny.

So basically...

We would probably get arrested for streaking through the neighborhood like a crazy person who slightly resembles a skinny meth addict.

It's crazy how age dictates cultural norms.

What a shame.

Not that I want to run naked through the neighborhood like a crazy person who slightly resembles a skinny meth addict.

But wouldn't it be nice to have that kind of energy?

  1. Saying hi from SITs. Your perspective just cracked me up. Very funny. It is strange how different we view what is acceptable as we grow up. Most of my son's traits that are often frowned upon in the context of school, would be traits he would be rewarded for in the working environment. Go figure.

  2. Yes!

    I'd be rich if I could bottle up my children's energy and sell it.

  4. I know what you mean-I wish we could all act like kids once in a while-well, how they act when they enjoy life anyway! Thanks for stopping by on my SITS day!
