There are some times when I would do anything just to be that 4 year old Princess again, that gets to play with the babysitter for hours. We didn't get to go to the babysitter's much, but we remember when we did. To play hide and seek all day or to sit down and have a tea party.
You can't wait to grow up and not have to take a nap, or my favorite you can ride around the corner without disobeying anyone and later getting a spanking (true story.) I often think " Remember when we painted on the countertop. Remember when we made pretty cards on the computer."
It is the little things in life that shape a person. Just a simple bowl of fruity pebbles and they will remember it for the rest of their lives. A simple baby doll that they get and they name it after you. A movie that you watched over and over....and over. The sound of the wind chimes. Kids remember everything. Event the smell that they get when they walk into your house ( a good smell!) And one day you will wake up and realize that you are babysitting their kids. And you will say
" Remember When."
