“The sheer excitement we got out of mundane things. When I was younger I remember getting pumped about the fact that mom was going to make some homemade play-doh so I had a new awesome toy that day. Or going on a road trip in the summer cause that meant we got to have Mcdonalds.

The joy I found in all of those small things when I was a kid that I take for granted now, I try to be mindful of it, and I still find joy, but it will never be the same.”
