Guest Blogger

Chronicles of a Clueless Mom is thrilled to welcome a guest blogger--my 7-year-old daughter, Sophie. The following is an essay Sophie wrote for school.

If I Were in Charge of the World



If I were in charge of the world, I'd cancel school, bedtime, and vegetables. I'd also cancel fruit.

 

If I were in charge of the world, there'd be more candy, less monsters, and no violence.

 

If I were in charge of the world, you wouldn't have bugs. You wouldn't have boys. You wouldn't have bad things or "Don't annoy your brothers." You wouldn't even have brothers.

 

If I were in charge of the world, candy would be vegetables.

 

And a person who sometimes forgot to clean and sometimes forgot to wash would still be allowed to be in charge of the world.

I don't know about you, but I want to take a trip to this peaceful, stay-up-all-night eating candy, never cleaning, never bathing, bug-less, monster-less world. I'm afraid I might miss strawberries though.
