Remember when Life was Simple....

When things in life get heavy, full of drama ( mostly self inflicted), and confusing...i like to remember when life was simple. When my biggest decision of the day was which Babysitter's Club Book to read, which barbie was was going to be, uh play with that day hahaah, which disney movie I would watch and which princess I was going to be that day. My mommy made all the big decisons, like what I would wear and what I would eat........but the rest of the day was left to coloring, playing dress up, playing school where I of course was the teacher and my little brother was the student who I loved to boss around because he would do anything I said. Oh those were some good times. But unfortunately, and fortunately we have to grow up....bigger decisions have to be made and mommy isn't always there holding my hand through all of it, although I tend to call her about 20 times a day when life gets crazy, still feeling like she will give me her caring encouraging words and take care of everything and make it all better as she always has. My mom really is amazing, as I called her in the middle of the day yesterday crying during a crisis that is really out of my hands and out of my control.....she knew exactly what to say to make me feel better for the moment anyways. While getting older has its perks, there are still somedays where I would give anything to just wake up, watch a little sesame street, play with my cabage patch dolls, go outside play in the sand box making mud-pies, have naptime where my mom would read to me Charlottes web, and wake up only to let the playing begin again....
