											| Growing Up... |  
											| by   Megan_Marie_20613 |  
											When you was old enough to say “I love you” 
When holding hands was going too far 
When all you wanted to do was set in the front seat of the car 
When you was daddy’s little girl 
Mammas little angle 
When all you needed was a happy meal to get you through your day 
When all it took was just one look to know you was doing wrong 
When pinky promises meant the world 
When guys had cooties 
And all you had to do was get tagged to be “it” to him 
Because scraped knees are so much easier to fix then broken hearts 
When mammas kisses made everything feel better 
When it didn’t matter what you wore 
And friends could be friends didn’t matter who your parents were 
And polka dots were cool 
And sugar highs was all you needed 
Cool aid was the crap 
When naps were stupid 
… and then things started to change 
Saying “I love you” was a commitment 
Holding hands isn’t far enough 
All you want is to set in the driver’s seat 
Daddy’s little girl and mommas little angle don’t have time for them anymore 
  
You move up to Big-Macs instead of happy meals 
You can never do wrong 
Promises don’t mean anything 
Clothes mean everything 
Sugar highs aren’t high enough 
Cool aid is still the crap 
And a nap sounds pretty good 
Is this the way it should be?
