In Others' Words: Childhood

"All grown-ups were once children. (But few of them remember it.)" ~Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Ah, childhood.

I think back to summer nights, staying out late with my siblings and the other neighborhood kids. Playing hide-n-go-seek under the glow of the street lights until our moms called us inside. Watching with fascination the on-off-on-off glow of lightning bugs that we'd captured in a glass jar. The toasted sugary goodness of marshmallows cooked over the still-hot coals in the BBQ grill in the backyard.

In Your Words: Favorite childhood memories, anyone?

Is there anything you miss from your when-you-were-younger years?
