When I Was Little
By:Macy McWilliams
When I was Little,I was a baby. When I was little, I had baby food. I don’t see how I could stand it! All that mushy junk. YUCK! Now I eat real food like pizza and hotdogs(not mushed up). I don’t think I’m ever going to touch that baby food again!
When I was little, I watched my brother come home from school on the school bus. Doing all that homework seemed fun. Now I go to school and do work instead of naps. Why did I ever think homework was fun?
When I was little, I read books like Hop on Pop and other baby books. I couldn't wait to read bigger books. Now I read books like Where The Red Fern Grows. Although I wish I could still read baby books.
When I was little, I had nap time which I thought was bad. I cried every time I had to take a nap instead of getting to watch a movie. Now I have snack time,but I wish I still had nap time. Well at least in school!
When I was little, I sat in a highchair. I was so tiny I probably came up to the height I do now in a regular chair. Now I sit in a school chair all day long, but the highchairs look so much fun and so high up.
When I was little, I scribbled with crayons. I got it all over my face and hands. I couldn’t wait to be able to draw and not get messy. Now I draw with pastels and still get messy.
When I was little,I had pigtails that flopped around whenever I turned my head, it was so annoying! Now I have a ponytail that won’t flop around even when I want it to and thats so annoying.
When I was little, I played with dolls and thought that my mom talked on the phone to much. I thought I would never talk on the phone that much! Now I talk on the phone a lot and I don’t think my mom talks enough.
When I was little, I played with stuffed animals and through them around. If it was alive it would be dead the moment I touched it! Now I have a dog that seems like a stuffed animal, but instead of throwing him around we drag around.
When I was little, I was the baby. I hated it so much I wanted to grow up! Now I have lots of younger cousins and I see that when your the baby then you get a lot of attention. Maybe I’ll go back to being a baby!!
