a five year old's perspective on being a grown up



the other day Zoe says to me:

"Mom, it's so easy being a grown up and
so hard being a kid."

Me: "Why do you say that, Zoe?"

Zoe: "Because grown ups can do what ever they want
and kids always have to listen to the grown ups!"

Sigh, if she only knew!

On another note, the photo above was taken during
our family photoshoot over the weekend...
I love it!

I am eagerly awaiting to get the rest and when I do
I will share more photos with you all!

Happy Weekend Everyone!

If only she knew that she'll have to listen to you until she's old and grey but then again she'll come for advise herself. That is a lovely photo and I'm curious to see the rest :)

That's the thing about kids, they have such a different perspective on the world. Oh, to be a kid again!

Don't worry -- one day she will understand everything completely. I remember saying the same thing when I was little. And your family photo is fantastic! Hope you have a wonderful weekend with your beautiful little ones, dear friend.

Well, I mean... grown ups CAN do whatever they want, you know, when they aren't busy working to pay the mortgage or take care of and feed the kids. ;-) I love hearing little kids perspectives on things, it's always so interesting hearing how they view the world!
