Sometimes I feel like we're just playing house. Is there ever a point where you go,"Yup, we're adults!" or do you just forever feel like you're still that little kid, just in a big-person's life?
It's weird. I woke up this morning and realized I'm doing all the adult things, yet I never really felt a shift into being an adult. Then again, I still wear pigtails, so that's got to say something!
I still feel like i'm that kid in a big-person's life... definately.
sometimes i feel like i'm 40 already...and other times i feel like that 10 yr old girl again. i wish i felt like the little girl more often actually. maybe i'll wear pigtails today:)
I'm much much older than you, dear - and wearing pigtails always makes me feel young and frisky. One of the reason's it's my hairdo of choice for working out!
i think you definitely never feel "grown up." what freaks me is when i realize that i'm the age now that my parents were when i was my kids age (if you follow me), and then think back to my perceptions of my parents then. yikes.
eeeks! who knows...i think i'll always be a kid too....
For Squeaky and I, the "adult" moment was our first major purchase together...the washer and dryer. I haven't any idea why...it just did.
My name is erika-renee, but call me eka - pronounced "eh-ka." I'm suddenly somehow 32, though I still love pigtails and overalls and silly, happy things. I live north of Boston, and I'm happily married to him - we met 15 years ago in high school in NY. I blogged at snazzykat.com for almost 6 years before deciding to make the switch to this domain in Dec 06.

Little Samson Daniel was born on February 24th, 2006. Sammy was born with a congenital heart defect called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). He underwent his first open heart surgery at 4 days old and his second at 5 months old. He will need another surgery when he's between 2 and 3 years old. His mama and daddy, however, think he's absolutely perfect. You can read all about his birth here, or all about him on his site, baby samson.
all this cheesy goodness is mine, mine, mine. don't steal - instant karma will get you. john lennon said so.
