There has to be something to the way kids act. As adults, I think we should pay more attention to them. Kids can teach us many lessons.
Take for example, bugs-a-boo. She never "walks" anywhere. It isn't that she is running, either. She is usually skipping or galloping unless she is in a very big hurry then she runs. But she always seems happy. Skipping through the grocery story. Galloping to the bathroom. Simple tasks turn into fun! I think you would see a lot more happy adults if we skipped through the grocery store. I personally do not like grocery shopping, but I do think it would be much more bearable or maybe even fun if I was skipping!
My boy on the other hand, well he is usually running. But his running serves a purpose. He has to run so that he can jump over whatever it is he is thinking is a mountain or a swamp of alligators. Acutally he is probably pretending to be on a dirt bike and is jumping over the obstacles. But he always seems happy running around, off in his own little world. Adults should take time to do this more often. What a great way to relieve stress!
If you see me in the grocery store, don't think that I have gone crazy....JOIN me!
