I remember when the hardest decision was what crayons to get.
I remember when every little girl wanted to be a vet.

I remember when pig tail braids were cool.
I remember my first day of school.

I remember when boys had cooties.
I remember when nobody worried about beauty.

I remember when friends would never fight.
I remember when all I did was ride my bike.

I remember when my piggy bank was filled with nickels and dimes.
I remember those simpler times.
