When I grow up I want to be able to play in the mud without everyone looking at me like I am crazy.

I will also learn how to fold pattern pieces and put them back in the envelope. :monkey:

What are you going to do or be when you grow up. You can be serious or humorous.

I'm never going to grow up, never never never.

But, if I did, then I would actually finish projects that I start before starting the next one.

When I grow up I just want to grow up - I have been a musician so long, now I have no clue (except sewing) what else I might become...
May God Bless you!

When I grow up I want to be tall. I'm tired of being short 5'0. I'd love to be around 5'8 and weight about 130 pounds.

Nah I don't ever want to grow up, it's too much responsibility. I think I'll stay age :nah: 10.

When I grow up I'm going to have a kind and considerate husband and a beautiful daughter. Oh heck - I must have grown up with out realising as I have both of those!

I'll know that I've really grown up when I finally finish a fairisle jumper and notice the mistakes BEFORE I cast off!

When I grow up I am gong to be a butterfly. Or a cat - they have a blast! With a bit more practice I'll be able to finish Tombraider on the playstation but I don't think I will ever be James Bond.

If I grow up, do I have to stop burping loudly? ' cos it ain''t happening.

My daughter once said to me
"Mum, some people are in touch with their inner child, you ARE your inner child" Yay ME!
love and kisses, Jan

Growing up? I'm past that. I started regressing already :nah: Some old folks home is going to have a little devil in their hands in about 25 years and guess who that will be :nah: :bg: :nah:

In the meantime, I try to remain graceful ... whatever that means :whacky:

I grew up once, it was no fun so I went back to being a kid at heart. The biggest compliment I ever got was from my DGD who said she would rather spend time with me because her other Grandma was all grown up and no fun.

My husband said to me one day "Don't you think it's about time you acted your age?"...and I said "No, I tried that once and it was no fun!" :bg:
So, nope, no growing up for me. I like me just as I am. When my granddaughter was about 5 she told one of her friends she was going to her Grandma's and the friend asked which one and she said "the fun one". Best compliment I ever had! :angel:

For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be an attorney. But I think I might be a fashion designer on the side because no one makes the clothes that I want to wear so I always end up making them! :angel:
