Four year olds should run the world!

Andrew Charles Forrest

Four year olds should run the world!

 

I remembered playing shops with my four year old daughter

When tired, I cleverly thought I would say

“But I’ve run out of money darling”

She simply said to me

“That’s okay Daddy... You can have some more... La la la”

Why does the world get so complicated as we get older?

 

To my: cuppy cake gum drop snookem snookem snorf... The aple of my eye... Scarlet the inventor of kisses and cuddles xxxooo

    Because greed and society has not corrupted their innocence.
    Why do people have a caring and loving bond with their grandchildren, because they are the responsibility of their children.
    Nice recollection
