So, Julianne and I checked out a new toy store near our house to get some birthday gift ideas and boy did she have some! In fact, when we were leaving, I said, "we have to go home now to Daddy and June" and she said, "No, Mom, I want to live at the toy store!"
I truly think I am still 50% kid (I get this from my father who will play "bunnies" endlessly with Julianne) because I really want to play with the toys and read the kiddie books too - Even more, I love the thought of taking her to Disney World, Sea World, Splash Town, the Circus, etc. - that stuff just makes my heart sing and to see her little face light up and enjoy it and relish in it makes it sing BIG (as Jules would say). I mean let's face it, we all have a very limited number of years in which to be a kid and be "carefree" and then it is the real world and having a child allows us to slip back into that kid mode even though it drains our pockets dry - it is WORTH it.
In conclusion, I want to live at a toy store too!
