LET THE CHILDREN PLAY

Inspired by Linda Lank, Ryan Hopkins and All

LET THE CHILDREN PLAY

Let the children play...

Watch out for one another's child when you can...

​​​​​​They're cute when they're dirty when it doesn't really matter...

You can afford Soap and Water?

Clothes clean in the proper machine...

They may have to soak...

Homemade pair of new play clothes...

They have their good School and Church clothes...

That special place where everyone looks sharp...

People are reminiscing, dreaming, laughing, and high five'n....

Sharing together...

Making friends...

The birthday party got bigger...

​​​​​​Let the children be children...

We can keep them safe...

We were strong, smart, and survivors...

Secrets kept... 

So people didn't get freaked out, call the police, and that could keep you stuck in the house...

I wouldn't have ever known how clever I was...

Survivors can tell...

There were a lot more fun days than scary...

Halloween...

Haunted Houses and Trick or Treat...

​​​​​Free lessons if you want to know how to make someone jump and scream without giving them a heart attack...

You just have to play along and watch...

​​​​​​The feel of the sand in the Summer...

Some days with your friends building castles...

Summertime taking turns at each other's houses...

Sharing lunch...

The Mom cooks if she isn't working...

The kid had better learn how to make Mac & Cheese...

​​​​​​Mom has to work...

Tired of sandwiches...

Be careful what you're doing, getting burned hurts...

It could turn bad really fast...

Now, we have 911...

Not everyone got a Nanny...

Children can do things...

You would be amazed...

​​​​​​Let them be social let them be free when free time is available...

You will see an awesome child...

You didn't even know you had...

Some might be Rebels...

They just may need different rules...

I hope they're good for goodness sake...

Vitamin D from the Sun and stronger immune systems just comes with it...

Honey, Cough Medicine and Vapor Rub in every medicine chest...

There was no cure for the common cold...

Don't forget the Sunscreen and Bug Spray...

It's not bad if you need it...

Don't forget the chapstick...

A little Vaseline goes a long way...

You just have to daub the glob with tissue or something...

We didn't have diabetes and weren't filled with anxiety...

If you live in Snow Country...

Sleds, Skates,Tires, and Dogs...

Watch the fingers and the head...

We didn't have helmets and gloves protect just from the cold...

We had Band-Aids...

We just didn't have the Ouch less kind...

After all the vacation time...

See you at School...

I'll call you tonight...

What are you wearing tomorrow?

​​​​​​If we get mad at each other...

Adults stay out of it...

We'll work it out or we won't...

We're probably not going to kill each other if we think we want to...

They call that self control...

Better with a friend but, we were okay alone...

We weren't living in a War Zone...

When I was a child...

under damp dark ground
waiting for that one magical moment...
