Ack! Haiku Hump Day! The theme is child actors.

Sorry, hope this isn't up too late! In honor of Zack's birthday, and Zack's most recent callback for a commercial, the theme today is child actors.


They start off cute, and then what happens to them?
Some age gracefully.

Some maybe not so much.

Others definitely not.

No matter how annoying you might find them, isn't there just a little part of you that wanted to be one?
