Today I was out at the store with my youngest. It made me realize how much I miss something. Remember when we had babies, or toddlers who were just so damn cute. Strangers would smile at us, say, how cute, coo at the kids.
I realize that the age of 5 is not cute anymore. They just are there.
Perhaps we all just need that look and smile once in a while...to remind us that we did something right.
Now the only look I get is if one of them is being annoying or acting up in the store. Gone are the looks of how adorable, what a good kid. Now the looks are, what is wrong with you or your kid. Where have you gone wrong...my kid would never act like that.
I just need that look again...that how cute, how fun, how young....
