Day 17

Someone you would want to trade lives with for a day and why

Well my first thought was Derek Jeter (my favorite New York Yankee) I would spend they looking at myself in the mirror, living the good life, maybe rubbing my hands all over my chest, and then of course I would transfer all my money into a girl name Melanie Bernard's checking account.
But more on the reality side (actually this is not reality either) but I have actually thought many times what it would be like to remember being a newborn/baby or even a toddler like my Karalyn who is 22 months. My husband can remember things as early as 4 and 5. But my first memories are from 2nd grade so at least 7 or 8. It would be nice to be Brodie for a day, sleep most of the day, being held and cuddled and knowing what they are thinking when they smile and cry. Karalyn would be fun to be for a day as well, full of energy and smiles, but also just being able to throw a fit and cry when something does not go my way. Right now she knows 1000 words easy, but she does not put them together and use sentences yet. When she goes off on a story in her little baby girl language... I would love to know what she is saying and thinking. If she is really saying words she understands or if she is as lost as I am. Little children are so close to Heaven and pure. They have no worries or stress in the world. That sure would be nice... even for just one day.
