Norman Rockwell eat your heart out

[plural]

glancing out my window
I see
a group of children
playing stickball
in the cul de sac

I think often
we forget
what it was like
to be a child

and our lives
are poorer for it

I have struggled with trying to feel like an 'adult' a grown up. I do not even feel I look like one. (I have pics in the start of my journal somewhere). But I have two kids, a great guy, and I do not feel or look like the women I see as women. I look young. I am 23, and I feel I'll never look older. It sucks. I do not even feel old. I am not taken seriously at times because of how I look. Though I do get hit on by guys, but hate it because I am with someone. I know they do not know this, it just personally annoying, lol.

It is late I ramble. I just had to comment that I do recall feeling as a child, and there were crappy times, but I do like recalling the good times. The play. I miss it. I think this is why I like kids. They let you play with them in their games without looking stupid.
