Conversation in the Car:

Spike ( age 13):  I still want to be a zoologist when I grow up, but I think I want to have my own show on Animal Planet.  Like Jeff Corwin.

Blondie (age 9):  Mom, do doctors get paid?  (to which I answered yes, they get paid quite a lot.) Then I think I want to be either a doctor, or a teacher.  Or maybe someone who works in the drive-thru at McDonald’s.

Goo (almost 5):  You know what I want to be when I grow up?  A policeman, or a construction worker, or a superhero, or an ice cream truck driver.

 

Yep, should be interesting to see what they study in college.

    Makes me think back to when life was just so simple . . . when you could be ANYTHING you wanted to be.

    You know what? Ice cream truck driver sounds just fine by me. Good seasonal work. :)

    I think there is a super hero college somewhere. Not sure about the drive thru though.

    I wanted to be an actress. I don’t see any cameras so I’m pretty sure that didn’t happen…yet. ;)
