Be a Kid Again

Give
yourself a gold star for everything you do today 
Dot
all your "i"'s with smiley faces
Sing
into your hairbrush
Grow
a milk mustache 
Smile
back at the man in the moon
Read
the funnies-throw the rest of the paper away
Dunk
your cookies

Play
a game where you make the rules as you go along
Order
with eyes that are bigger than your stomach
Open
a pack of cupcakes and give one to a friend
even though you wanted both of them for yourself.
Step
carefully over sidewalk cracks.
Change
into some play clothes.
Try
to get someone to trade you a better sandwich.
Have
a staring contest with your cat 
Eat
ice cream for breakfast.
Kiss
a frog, just in case.
Give
someone a "hug-around-the-neck."
Blow
the wrapper off a straw.
Refuse
to eat crusts.
Make
a face the next time somebody tells you "no."
Watch
TV in your pajamas.
Ask
"Why?" a lot 
Have
someone read you a story.
Eat
dessert first.
Wear
your favorite shirt with your favorite pants
even if they don't match.
Sneak
some frosting off a cake. 
Refuse
to back down in a "did vs. did-not argument."
Do
a cartwheel.
Get
someone to buy you something you don't really need.
Hide
your vegetables under your napkin.
Stay
up past your bedtime.
Whatever
you're doing, stop once in a while for Recess.
Wear
red gym shoes.
Make
a "slurpy" sound with your straw when you get
to the bottom of a milkshake.
Put way too much sugar on your cereal.
Play a song you like really loud, over and over.
Find some pretty stones and save them. 
Let the string all the way out on your kite.
Walk barefoot in wet grass.
Make cool screeching noises every time you turn a corner.
Count the colors in a rainbow.
Fuss a little, then take a nap.
Take a running jump over a big puddle.
Eat dinner at the coffee table.
Giggle a lot for no real reason.

LET
US ALL BE KIDS TOMORROW...IT COULD BE FUN!!
