I want to revisit my childhood days and not look like a lunatic...
I miss mud pies...
At least I have the kids to use in my puddle jumping fun...
I tried the new pogo ball they have out and it popped out from the little platform...
Secretly I read the kid's books (when not reading to them) like Rain Makes Applesauce...
Scribbling is a lot of fun for me, then finding pictures hidden in the scribbles...
I want a giant trampoline and I do not want to share it...
When I see a toy that says "try me", I do it and sometimes act like the kids did it...
Halloween used to be so much fun and I still like the candy...
Santa needs to fill my stocking too (hint hint to the hubby)...
Sometimes I feel the overwhelming urge to tag someone randomly and yell "you're it" while running off... Maybe they will actually play too... That would be fun!!!
I could go on forever!!!
What would you do if you could act like a complete child again???

Strategies for Living With a Mental Illness Tip #1
I color, outline first and then add color lightly. I play with playdough. I swing on the swings. Son gets a kick out of me being silly.
I still have one at home, so he makes it more fun.
I act silly to music, even kid music and it breaks up homework pressure.
I still run out in the yard at least once every summer and squish my toes in mud just to remember what it'd been like as a kid to do that. Only difference? I make sure to have a hose nearby so I don't track in the dirt.
I've been known to jump in mud puddles too. Hey, if Gene Kelly could do it (Singing in the Rain), I figure - why not?
The one thing I'd do again that I can't now: eat lots of Taffy Apples. I'm too afraid of pulling out a filling now.
