Free, Like Me

"Mom, wanna know what my favorite candy in da whole world is?"

(Mom waits silently.)

"Yellow bubblegum, Mom. Yellow bubblegum is my favorite in da whole world."

"Honey, you've never had yellow bubblegum."

"But, I'm free now, Mom! I'm free. I'm still free. Are you free like me, Mom?"

"No, honey. I'm twenty five."

"Oh. Well, I'm free."

lol, too funny!
well, at least you have someone else in the family in the same shoes.
you and kira both have 3 kids and since you're turning 25, then you are now both the same age.

I thought, what a deep thinker. She's free to have her yellow bubble gum. Thanks for interpreting. That makes a little more sense.
