It wouldn't matter exactly what age under 12, all of them were happy and carefree. It was just a wonderful time to grow up. Your parents didn't have to really worry much about you and all summer you just played with your friends and had a good, clean time! And the night's were so wonderful. I remember being in bed all nice and clean and the attic fan being on and the curtain flying above you and that nice air would come in from the fan. And some nights you could hear your parents talking in bed and it gave you such a wonderful sense of security. Oh, those wonderful days, how they're missed!
