Childhood...
How many of you would go back to live out just one of your childhood days if granted? I know I would.
The freedom to play, run , love, trust and learn. To have no real world worries. To feel the love from most all of the people around you. To know you will be taken care of and protected.
It's sad to me that ALL the children of the world do not have this. This is one of the many reasons Allen and I pray to foster or adopt one day.
Looking at my little Sunshine the other day I was reminded of my own childhood.
I remember summer days picking weeds and wild flowers. Sitting up under a large shade tree while letting my mind drift into the day.
She is so beautiful and I love that she has a childhood full of freedom to play, run, love, trust and learn.
To have no real world worries, to have that love she feels from most all the people around her and to know she will be taken care of and protected always...

What a beautiful post and beautiful pictures! I'm one who would not go back to my childhood. But I'm very happy to be able to create beautiful memories for my children! :-)
I love the pic of her in the tire swing!! I often think about the fun life of a child myself...I always loved my friends, but I was so lonely at home...I was an only child until I was 11, so if I went back as a kid, I would want to have siblings like my kids have. I often watch them and think they have no idea what it is like to be lonely.
Paula- Im so sorry you didnt have that! Every child should have this! Look at you today! You and Greg have such a beautiful life together.
Your children have a wondeful childhood with wonderful parents.
Maury- I was an only child and even a child of one parent as a young child. I dont remember feeling lonely. I do remember playing alone and drifting away in daydreams, singing, talking to myself and made up friends when I was alone. I loved when my cousins or my friend from next door came to play too but still was ok alone. Its funny some kids are and others are not. J needs people around or he will feel lonely and A can play on her own all day... We are all diffrent. Sorry you felt alone. Your children do have a wonderful cahildhood it shines through their smile. I can see you side when you look at their life and live some things for the first time through their life. As in seeing what siblings do day to day.. I think it would have been a lot of fun. but still feel blessed to have the childhood I had.
Nice post. It really makes me appreciate what a great childhood I had, and how lucky I am to be able to give that to my kids.
I love this post!
Im happy you all liked it. Its nice to sit back and see what we do or dont have and learn from it..- ME
