They just like to have fun anything to keep them happy. Also kids are very blunt they dont know they offending somebody by just giving their honest opinion. A child in my life is my nephew Kartier. By just watching him i see how honest kids are, like one time were in a grocery store and my nephew smelled someones gas and yelled in the middle of the store to the man in front of us like ew your nasty and all i could do was laugh. I couldnt be mad at him tho cause he knew no better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00265916130077080530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127495159868958338.post-5603747767843571962014-02-02T08:53:56.421-08:002014-02-02T08:53:56.421-08:00Children are in some ways better are reading a per...Children are in some ways better are reading a persons mood better than we can.

A child will love you as you love them and give them respect. They have the innocence to be a friend to everyone and have a care free attitude. Children can let there dreams blossom and believe that they are going to come true. As for adult's I believe most of them lose those hopes and dreams as life goes on. Children have important messages that everyone could use. <br /><br />An important child to me is my cousin Enrique. Not just because he was something new and cute, but his personality was great. I remember even at a very young age his commical care free ways made me laugh and always will. alexandra2539https://www.blogger.com/profile/12147330705291018504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127495159868958338.post-21196909249815325382014-01-29T09:06:51.680-08:002014-01-29T09:06:51.680-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.alexandra2539https://www.blogger.com/profile/12147330705291018504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127495159868958338.post-64875119339034608432014-01-29T09:05:48.853-08:002014-01-29T09:05:48.853-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.alexandra2539https://www.blogger.com/profile/12147330705291018504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127495159868958338.post-79025349630842660142014-01-29T07:47:52.892-08:002014-01-29T07:47:52.892-08:00Well i have four younger brothers and one on the w...Well i have four younger brothers and one on the way, and they are my life.

And will not be satisfied with the same things that we or even our parents would have been growing up.

Their energy is both a blessing and a curse, but what I love is the curious questions they always have. When we are too old to ask questions, we are fooling ourselves. Just like kids, we have to keep hungry to learn, in my view!Mike Lohrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05832313501793243606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3127495159868958338.post-66017163755235412212014-01-28T16:53:49.652-08:002014-01-28T16:53:49.652-08:00We definitely learn so many things from younger ch...We definitely learn so many things from younger children. As we get older we tend to lose a lot of abilities we had as children and they help us remember what it was like. They have the quality of cuteness, playing the cute card doesn't really work for us adults to get what we want like children can. They are more active than we are, children run around and play and honestly some of us are too lazy for that now. <br /><br />My little cousin's mean the world to me. When they come to visit me my inner child comes out. They keep me active and they inspire me to be mature but to never let my childhood memories die. Corban is exactly 10 years and 10 days apart from me , he is 8. Braydan is 6 and Rozzalyn is 4. They are the most energetic fun loving little kids I know. The boys are in football, baseball, and basketball and I love watching them play. When both Corban and Braydan scored they're first touchdown they were so happy and I was so proud and glad I was there to witness it. I'm proud of them and they give me hope for one day when I'm older and have my own kids to be proud of. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12009735704405040191noreply@blogger.com
