Did you ever get a thought in your head that just wouldn't leave? Mine involves a post by my daughter on facebook-it says something like don't you wish life would hand you a remote so you could go back in time.
I keep wondering where in her 18 years would she go back. Would she be a little kid? We'd be trying to figure out the perfect halloween costume. I'd try to figure out where to take the kids trick or treating and what kind of candy to handout-nothing too dorky or cheap-the perfect balance between nutritious and sweet.
Would she go back to grade school? The fall festivals would be in full swing-she'd probably be selling raffle tickets or candy. Fall Ball (softball) would be winding down and basketball practice would be starting.The first nine week report cards would be coming home any day now.
Maybe Junior High-cotillion would be in full swing. Football games every Thursday or Friday night and of course what movie would she see with her friends that weekend?
Maybe she'd go back to high school.Homecoming would be coming up. She might date different boys (would she go out with the ones I wanted her too?) She might hang with different girls. I wander what she'd do differently or why she'd want to go back.
I wouldn't want to go back for anything because then she wouldn't be the wonderful woman she is today.
