“I don’t think its over. I think we are in that in between stage. Like we are practicing to be adults, but could really be just as happy in overalls running around.”—MOH (friend since 1st grade)
i don’t know when it ended. in a telephone conversation with my dad he said “childhood is over”.
I know he was saying it to give me a reality check while i was freaking out about something and I really do appreciate it. I am in college now and I am working hard in school to do something with my life, not because the state requires me to be in school.
Was there a cut off, a day that childhood ended?
Was there a room i walked into, is childhood a place i get permanently locked out of?
i could really rock some overalls and sit on the couch watching Hey Arnold with some mac n cheese.
i guess if we never grew up no one else would have a chance at a childhood.
i would never hurry my princess soso's childhood.
