The thing that I miss most about being a 5 year old was the innocence of time spent and what we did in our time. My sisters and I would come up with imaginary friends (the ice cream monster) and we would spend countless hours of fun together. Those hours have now passed as though they were seconds. My sisters and I would play with my dad once he got home from work. We would lay down in a large blanket that covered us from head to toe, then our dad would pick up the corners of the blanket and hold them tight while he swung us around the room. My sisters and I would also go out and play with neighborhood friends. The best days were those crisp autumn afternoons we spent eating raspberries in our neighbor's backyard. I also remember raking leaves in the fall and jumping into a pile of leaves that we had just so neatly collected. Once Dad got home, we would also play a laser pointer game. He would spell out words on the ceiling, and we had to guess what word he had just written out. It's an amazing thing how vividly we can remember things from so long ago.
