Children!! Awww.

Once when I was little, I read this book titled, I am Sam. I am not really sure what the exact title was but it was this book from the point of view of a little baby. The baby was just born and he was looking at his sister, mother, and father. He kept mentioning the fact that he didn't know them but he would grow to love them and he knew this from the heart. The book was so sweet because I got to really understand what babies are thinking. I mean I was a baby once too but I don't remember anything. So, reading this book not only brought smiles to my face but also taught me lesson. I loved that book so much and I still do. There were many parts in the book where tears were also welding from my face. Sam mentioned the fact that we are not here for a long time and we should constantly remind our parents that we love them and we care for them. Even as a baby, Sam mentioned the fact that he too had a responsibility. This is funny; his responsibility was to bring joy to his mother's face no matter what it meant! You know like diaper changing or waking up in the middle of the night. My mother always said that when I was a baby I would never wake her up in the morning and she wanted to experience that once but she never did.
If you have younger siblings or younger family members, you should really recommend this book. It's so cute and it will bring tears of joy and smiles to their faces.

I think it is sweet too that someone wrote a book from a point of view of a baby. Isn't that so dramatic because how would you know what a baby think except when you guess. All of us probably don't remember anything during our sweet childhood. Sometime I feel as if I remember something from long ago but don't know when. The only thing that I know is that I was a baby when that happen. I don't know if my mom told me something like that or just some of the memories came back to me in a flash. Also, sometime when i look at my 9 month old baby picture of me. I keep remember stuff that I don't know when it happen. Do you?

Yeah, that is so true. Sometimes I feel like I was there but I wasn't there. Actually, every picture I look at makes me feel this way too. I guess I left that out from my blog. Thanks for mentioning it!
