Here is a picture that my seven-year-old drew of himself at 100–to celebrate the 100th day of school.
I love his red hair–which is brown now, and that he gave himself glasses in his old age. I could make out the cane easily enough, but I was confused about the thing he was holding in his other hand: A wand? A microphone?
“What’s that pink thing you’re holding, Hayden?”
“A lollipop!” he says, matter-of-factly.
Of course it is. If anyone will be eating lollipops at 100, it’s this guy.
Thanks for the glimpse into your future, Hayden. Enjoy every decade!
I so love that child! What an amazing and positive way to think! I could learn a ton from him! 🙂

You are so sweet. I think you and I both know that our kids are here to help us see things through a different lens. Have a lollipop this weekend–it’s good for your (mental) health:)
