Today I was talking
to my friends 5 year old daughter
on the phone.

And she was telling me that
she turns 6 in a few months.

She went on to explain that
she doesn't want to be 6 years old.
So I asked her why....
she said
"I just don't wanna grow up I wanna be a kid, I wanna be 5 years old forever."

And I couldn't believe that at 5 years old she's already doing life right.
She already knows that 6 years old is harder than 5 years old and God ****** she just wants to stay 5.

She knows growing up ***** and she wants no part of it.
She just wants to stay 5 forever.

And I just thought... "wow... same here."
