What is one thing you miss about being a kid?

The thing I miss the most is Christmas time.  My Mom sending us kids to bed early so Santa could come and then hearing her wrapping away, listening to Christmas music.  It was a safe and happy feeling.

I always loved being barefoot!

Running around outside and barefoot with only my basic chores and a lot of time to explore and play.

Everything! But since I have to chose just one, I guess it would be having no worries at all! Ahhh the good old days. I now wish that I would of listened to my mom and not try to grow up so fast.

I miss not having anything to do - just having the freedom to play outside the entire day without a care in the world.  No bills, no major responsibilities, just fun!

Lol, I still do that with my kids now :)

That's one of the beat parts of having kids, is getting to do a lot of the stuff you haven't done since being a kid!
