What if

Do you ever have those moments when you wonder what if? What if I hadn't become a teacher? What if I hadn't settled down and started a family? What if I had decided to be free, travel the world, do what ever I wanted? Don't get me wrong, I love my family, I love my job, I love those routine things that I do everyday just because, but I have those moments when I wonder what if. My friend just arrived in China for a year. He had nothing that tied him to one spot. It was one many of options he had to pick from. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to move half way around the world and start new. No sick babies, no being tied down. A new job, a new start, and when the years up I could come back or stay longer. I had no strings to keep my anywhere. But here I sit with sick kids, a mess called a home, school work coming out my ears, and following Jeremy's adventure through his blog. I'll just dream about "What if...."
