SubscribeLittle Me
I see that Lope has posted a picture of herself when she was little, (she was beautiful, of course), standing on a boat it looks like, hair still wet from swimming in a lake.
My natural domain was the driveway, or the yard, or the woods near my house. There was a creek running through it, but that’s it as far as water. Instead of boats I had Big Wheels; instead of fish I caught crawdads.
I can’t complain.
Lope says she feels like she’s returning to her original self, her true self – the little girl in the picture – and I agree. That makes me happy for her. It seems like we all lose sight of ourselves at some point growing up, and when you think about it, twenty years isn’t such a long time to spend separated.

Here’s a picture of me as a kid. I’m not sure if I recognize the boy in this picture… I didn’t really know him, you know? I was too busy *being* him… I didn’t have much self-awareness growing up, and when people who knew me tell me stories, I’m always surprised.
I don’t know. He seems like a nice little kid.
Maybe we’ll meet again soon, and I’ll recognize him.
You were adorable. :)
Still are.
Same face now, even had aviators back then! What’s funny is, you can so see that little guy being Elton John’s son too…
Thanks, Tom.
I can see him
