All Work and No Play...

Those that know me consider me to be one of the biggest kids around. I don't know of any rules that say I can no longer participate in water balloon fights or shoot people with silly string. I still get excited when I hear the music of the ice cream truck as it comes into our neighborhood.

Playing is a big part of my wife's and my relationship. Sure, there is always work to be done around the house but living life and enjoying it is so much more important - and fun. I could spend every evening doing paperwork or cleaning up around the house but I much prefer taking my wife out to eat an ice cream cone. When was the last time you did that?

Do you ever walk in the woods or meadows together and pick bouquets of wild flowers? How about playing hide and seek with your children or the neighborhood kids? I love to bake cookies with my wife and eat them piping hot out of the oven and drink a big, cold glass of milk and make milk mustaches. Yumm!

Perhaps the media calls me the World's Most Romantic Man because I am the world's biggest kid. I think there might be a connection. Is the kid inside you lost? If so, you better go find him. I've gotta go now. Time for me to go out to play.
