Five

When you're five, you get to take the school bus to school.

When you're five, you can walk on the sidewalk in the parking lot and not have to hold hands.

When you're five, you get to go to Target and get a bunch of school supplies.

When you're five, you can open your own fruit snacks.

When you're five, you get to use the special Bible that has all the fun games in it.

When you're five, your feet reach the pedals on the Green Machine.

When you're five, you can ride your bike without training wheels and not fall.

When you're five, you can buckle yourself in the car.

When you're five, you get to play on a real soccer team. Outside. On grass. With soccer shoes and shinguards and real soccer uniforms.
