-Smiling at the moon
-Chasing the water in the clouds
-Talking to trees and arguing with butterflies
-Following the ants to their holes
-Checking out the rose everyday till it blooms completely
-Hiding behind curtains and below the mattress or pillows and pretend playing hide and seek with an invisible friend
-Buying scented erasers and bizarre shaped-sharpeners
-Eating yours and your sibling's chocolates and complaining (while crying) that the kid next door took them away
-Shrieking with delight at the sight of those colourful-somethings the street hawker would sell daily,but you never had a chance to lay your hand on :(
-Bursting into laughter every time the whole class repeated the teacher in a sing-song voice
-Singing at the top of your voice at every opportunity. More the number of people, the higher the pitch of the voice :)
-"One-day-I'l-be-doing-the-same" slogan every time you see something new
-Childhood was the only time we could sleep peacefully and have wonderful dreams about fairies or having wings or ice-cream palaces and chocolate houses
-Every second was a new adventure and joyous anticipation of the next second
-After having 2 large ice-creams, you are still asked, "You want more?" :)
-You too get a cake to cut on your sibling's b'day!
-The smile never leaves your face :)
-Heartily laugh, splash in the water, giggle, talk, make mischief like no one's watching
-Embracing friends moments after a bitter fight over the game just played :)
Ah! Childhood and its memories...

Thrilled ! Relived every minute narrated so beautifully - especially loved: "Chasing the water in the clouds" and "arguing with butterflies" :D
Reminds me of theses lines:
I want to go back to that time
When getting "high" meant on a swing.
When "mom" was the only "hero"
When "dad's shoulders" were the "highest place"
When only thing that could be "broken" was your "toy"...
Eagerly waiting for subsequent posts!
