no such thing as a bad toddler, you try having all those big emotions in such a little body

instead i like to think “damn kid go off, do that while you can” or, “me too buddy, me too”. it’s only such a short time in ur life when u can go out into the world and scream and cry and wail when you feel so moved. and good for them! i miss those days sometimes, and none of this stimuli is even new to me anymore. anyway, they certainly don’t know much better, and crying babies are an inevitability of life, so how could i be bothered? parents have enough to worry about without grown people being babies about their babies

if an asshole is someone who throws a temper tantrum on the regular and who treats your interactions transactionally babies and even cute old people qualify. there is something to be said for a seeming loss of trust (from the knocks of life experience), openness (the degree of this depends on childrearing and epigenetics) and innocence (as magical thinking is replaced be logic-learnings). Fight your internal urge to prejudge, force yourself to engage new experiences and people outside your tribe, age, demographic and your world will truly stay magical:)

Just thinking is enough. No reason to follow through yet if ever. Think about it tho…all the little bonnets and tiny fists really get me going. I suggest a good long think sesh about children tagging along to your daily activities. Any age too..infant to toddler to a weird 9yo..possibilities are truly endless here

i cannot relate to women who miss their girlhood. when they felt carefree, happy. for me adulthood has been the first time i've experienced feeling carefree and happy. i work an 8:30-5:30 job and I pay my rent and I buy groceries and I take the bus and this is the happiest and safest and least stressed i've ever been. girlhood was awkward and uncomfortable. restrictive and quiet. sexualized. I didn't own my body, my space, my time. i was scared of my dad, i just wanted my mom to understand me. i didn't feel pretty and boys were mean. girls too. womanhood has been freeing and healing. I wear what i want, i eat what I want. my home is so safe, my body is too. i wish i could miss girlhood. but I can't, so I give my adult woman self the joy and safety and pink bedroom walls and stuffed animals and girly dresses she never had as a child. i give myself comfort. i listen to and I believe myself. i hold my inner little girl and tell her she is so beautiful and so loved. i try to give my adult woman self the girlhood i didn't have

sometimes I think "I wish I was a writer" but then I remember I can just write
