The world is full of endless possibilities for our children. One day they want to be an astronaut and the next day it's a ballerina. Let them dream. Encourage exploration of their hopes and dreams (that is, unless what they want to be is illegal!)
Someday they will grow up and hopefully, choose a profession that will be fulfilling and challenging. Maybe they will become something they always wanted to be or maybe it will be something completely different. Only time will tell...
My future ruler of the world is now an ICU nurse and an amazingly confident woman. I'm so proud of her!
What did YOU want to be when you grew up?
I remember becoming a pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon was always a dream of mine....I still think it would be amazing. :-)
ReplyDeleteI remember that! People couldn't believe you could pronounce such a big word and actually know what it meant!
DeleteWhen I grow up, I want to be an astronaut firefighter! Jeff Bezos (owner and founder of Amazon.com) is big into exploring potential markets and fields developing for future implementation. One of those he's actively pursuing is space flight and sustained life in space for the "Average Joe." My thought is that to accomplish this, they'll need emergency personnel... so I want to be first-in-line to become an astronaut firefighter. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm sure you'll be an awesome one! And I doubt there will be much rain in space :)
DeleteI wanted to be a single librarian with two cats :)
