I think that lots of people get back in touch with their inner child, when they have children and remember what it was like to have such unadulterated fun and see the world the world with new eyes. At the same time we need to retain some adultness to guide them.

It makes me a little sad reading this post, as I left the girls father, a year ago today and there is an ongoing court case about child access, but hopefully one day he will share your opinion that you did today.
