   I love that quote. I’m 29 and still want to be a Toys-R-Us kid.

   Keep smiling,

   I have never stopped thinking like a kid and never plan to. Perhaps tha’s why I write kid’s books. Great quote!

     Perhaps that is why, Darlene, and it works well for you. Blessings.

   You mean we stop? I’m still trying to think like a kid whenever applicable – it’s just this whole adult thing keeps getting in the way.

     I had to get used to thinking like an adult just a few years ago. I can relate to what you’re saying.

     I think it’s a great reminder of what we’re all about as writers.

   I read that during Picture Book of the Month. I loved it and have it as my inspirational at The Red Book. He’s a great kid.

   I remember feeling like a fraud for the longest time – living the life of an adult when inside I still felt like a kid. Great quote.

     Yes, he is.

   Hopefully, never! Adults only think about boring things like money and vacuuming.

     We do get caught up in the things that need our adult attention. It takes effort to remember what it’s like to think like a child, but it can be done!

    I don’t ever want to stop thinking like a kid.

    • Lynn | July 18, 2012 at 12:22 PM | Reply

      Good! I think when we do we tend to take things too seriously and then life becomes a burden to endure.

    And my desire is to never let go of my childlike wonder of the world. to infuse everything I do and see and experience with the awe of childhood… Lovely to meet you!

      The way life goes sometimes, I almost lost the delight of wonder … and even now I am having to keep reminding myself to let it happen, to look through the eyes of childlikeness and SEE what’s there. And if I forget I have a friend who reminds me. We all should have and be that kind of friend.
      Welcome to my blog, Louise.
