As Katie was now busy making dinner she could hear Grace and Kellie laughing happily upstairs. Finally her mom seemed to be re embracing her youth. Smiling to herself Katie couldn't help but long to join in on the fun. As great as it was being an adult Katie couldn't help but want to enjoy a simpler time.
"Should I," she thought. "Should I go back to being seven and enjoy being a child again." Katie pondered it a moment. The only way would be to affect her mother maybe, or to play some kind of other trick. Listening to the two girls giggle to themselves, having fun, Katie felt a bit jealous. Being an adult was ok, but there were responsibilities and things she didn't want to do. She wanted to have the freedom of an adult sure, but she didn't want to lose her childhood completely.
"I could become a kid again, make them think I am their age, or make us a little older, or ...maybe I could stay this age...but...what do I do?"
