Isaiah and I were sitting on the couch this morning and Isaiah started to tell me about his long term life goals. This is what he said:
Mommy, when I get big, I want to do what Daddy does. (I asked him if he meant be a pastor) Yeah… and be a Daddy!
I would be the bestest Daddy in the whole world. If the son said, “I want to go to the carnival.” I would say, “Yes. Maybe tonight or maybe tomorrow night.” And if my son said said, “I want to go to the Play Museum.” I would say, “Maybe tonight or maybe later.” And if my son said, “I want to buy a cool ornament for the Christmas tree.” I would say, “Yes.”
I’m going to have 4 kids: 2 boys and 2 girls. And I’m going to name them John, Zachery, Chloe and Leah. And that will be good, because we already have a Leah.
And Mommy, what do you think Leah will do to her children? I think she will treat them like I’m going to treat mine.
And I’m going to be a train driver and a gold collector, a builder and all the cool stuff. And be what Daddy does and go to the gym and even be a wrestler.
Do you remember the Richard Scarry book about the baby bunny, and all the extended rabbit family speculates about what he will be when he grows up? Will he be a fireman? A policeman? A teacher? But the baby bunny knows what he wants to be when he grows up — a Daddy Bunny! I loved that book when you girls were small.
How does the boy know about being a gold collector????
He saw a guy with a metal detector once, and it forever changed his life. I think he wants to actually dig for gold, not just horde coins.
That is the cutest story i have ever heard:)
Aw, thanks :)
