The living room is so much better for running around and making noise than your own bedroom. A couch is the best trampoline. Money may not grow on trees, but it sure is always in your parents' pockets. Real life, including your love life begins in kindergarten. Parents are confusing. They tell you not to speak to strangers, then when you meet a stranger, they tell you to say hello. Saying, "You look like Patrick from SpongeBob Squarepants is really a compliment. No matter how many times you watch the same TV show, listen to the same song, read the same book, watch the same tape or dvd, you can never really get tired of it.

It's ok to eat the same thing for lunch for a year. A nickel is worth more than a dime because it's bigger. A messy room has character. There is a McDonald's restaurant wherever you go. Why do you need to know how to tie your laces, when there are velcro straps on your shoes' The best part of birthday parties are the party favors. It's much easier to wake up early on weekends, then weekdays. Scarves, gloves, hats, and sometimes jackets will get lost at school. Fish are friends, but they die too soon. The telephone is our enemy. Five minutes is a long time to wait. Brushing your teeth should not take longer than 30 seconds. The response to "How was your day'" will almost always be "Good." Why should bread have crust' You don't need to use the bathroom until you're out of the house or in the car. Keys, credit cards, and cell phones like to play hide and seek. Green colored food is yucky. Last, but not least, you can never get too many hugs or kisses throughout the day.
