From Zero to One
by Brendan Reardon

It can be very confusing growing up.
Especially when your only a couple seconds old.

Everything is all blury at first.
You can barely see anything.

Then, two people appear and their smiling at you...
so I guess things are good.

Starting out, everything is great!
People hold you all the time...

feed you all the time...

kiss you all the time...

But then, the so called diaper change happened.

Everything was just so exposed...

I decided crying was a good option.

Speaking of which,
crying is a good option for everyhting.

I can cry and get picked up.

I can cry and get played with.

I can cry and get fed. It was awesome!

Then,
everyone expected me to do things.

They wanted me to sit-up on my own...

Roll over on my own...

...and even walk on my own.

I mean really, they can carry me everywere.
Why do I need to walk.

But hey, when they hug me, cheer me on, and smile at me...

...growing up doesn't seem that bad after all.
