All children, except one, grow up. They soon know that they will grow up,
and the way Wendy knew was this. One day when she was two years old she was
playing in a garden, and she plucked another flower and ran with it to her
mother. I suppose she must have looked rather delightful, for Mrs. Darling put
her hand to her heart and cried, “Oh, why can't you remain like this for ever!”
This was all that passed between them on the subject, but henceforth Wendy
knew that she must grow up. You always know after you are two. Two is the
beginning of the end.
