The Hurt Locker

You love playing with that.
You love playing with your stuffed animals.
You love your mommy, you daddy, your nature pajamas.
You love everything, don't you?
Yeah. You know what buddy?
Once you get older, some of the things that you love might not seem so special anymore.
Like your Jack in the Box.
Maybe you realize it's just a piece of tin and a stuffed animal.
And then you forget the few things you really love.
And by the time you get to my age maybe it's only one or two things.
With me. I think it's one.
