So, yeah, ummm, yep. I have that same thought at least 254 times a week. I would never change my son. If given the opportunity, I'm not sure that I could follow through, because taking away what makes him "abnormal" is taking away what makes him, well, him. But holy shit wouldn't it be nice to not have to perfectly align the toothpaste with the bristles? Although I love every single aspect that makes him unique, I always wonder about what life would be like "on the other side". It's the same as wondering what life would be like if I wasn't balding, had 24" biceps, and a tanned six pack. We will always wonder what life would be like on the other side, but, honestly, we'd just bitch about something else. Great post, as always.
