do you ever wonder?

what it would be like if you were in a different family? first of all, i love my whole family, the good and the bad and would never ever want to be in another one. but do you ever think about it? this is what prompted this thought. i've heard this story from my mom about when i was born. at the hospital, the nurse brought a baby to my mom, but it wasn't me. she said she laid this baby down on the bed beside her and told the nurse it wasn't her baby. the nurse told her it was. my mom said it wasn't. the nurse insisted, and my mom said she did not have a boy! finally it was straigtened out. my mom was (of course) right! (she said this other baby was also 'ugly' and that i was really cute) i can't even imagine what that would have been like! but i do think what could have been if they had not straightened it out-if my mom hadn't really known, or if the baby the nurse had brought her had looked enough like me that my mom didn't catch it? scary!
