last week i spent the day with my 8 year old cousin and it was one of the most fun days I’ve had in ages. We watched about 25 minutes of Wicked (turns out 8 year olds don’t have a great attention span), fed the squirrels in the park, baked cookies and coloured in. kids make you laugh in a really pure way and have some of the wildest takes on some of the most unexpected subjects. they’re also so excited to share the things that they love with you and tell you sincerely all about why it’s so great, something i think all of us can appreciate.
