Caution: Hibernating 'Children'

Today I built a cubby and it made me remember how simplistic and enjoyable childhood was. I made it with minimal help from 5 year old O'man - I made him think he made it , but the architectural design was all my idea. I was even (secretly) chuffed when my partner came in to see it and exclaimed how great it was and that it was 'the best cubbyhouse in the world!' I believed him, of course, and relished in my greatness. I even took photos.
After 5 minutes O'man wanted to watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit and humoured me when I asked him what he thought of the cubby, stating "good, it's really good" whilst leaving it uninhabited. Which now means I must return to adulthood....

My brother and I made the BEST cubbies! We'd put a whole sheet over the dining table and pull out the chairs and it would be HUGE!
Wow, flashbacks.

They were so much fun, but they are STILL fun. So stop renting - build a cubby!
