old soul?

This picture hangs in my 3-year-old son's bedroom.
When I was getting him dressed, he smiles and points to it.
"Mom, do you think he is having fun? That was me when I was older."
I tried to correct him.
"You mean when you grow up, that's what you want to be?"
"No," he says, "that's what I was when I was older."

Ironically enough, the same day, I had gone out and bought this book:
It's an amazing story about parapsychology, a branch of psychology that includes the study of reincarnation.

Call me out there, but I can't help but think, 
even for a moment,
about the things kids say.
And about coincidences.
