We have most of our profound conversations while I'm drying Makenna's hair. (That is in between the Oh! You're Hurting Me! and Ouch! That Hurts!) This was night before last...
Mak - Mom, I know what I want to be when I grow up.
Me - (Knowing that she always says songwriter) A songwriter?
Mak - Nope! I want to help people like Ms. Megan, our nurse at school.
Me - Wow! That's great that you want to be a nurse.
Mak - No, wait a minute! I think I want to be an artist.
Me - I'm sure you'll be good at that.
Mak - Wait a minute. I think I will be a computer lab teacher.
(Yeah to her computer lab teacher for helping these aspirations!)
Me - Wow! You sure are going to be a lot of things.
Mak - I know. Let's name them.
(She holds up her fingers.)
Mak - 1. nurse, 2. doctor (Where did that one come from?), 3. artist, 4. computer lab teacher, 5. sunflower planter (Okay... that one threw me for a loop.), 6....
Me - Is there more?
Mak- I want to be FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
Me - Wouldn't it be cool to be famous for writing songs for Jesus?
Mak - No, mom! I just want to be a famous nurse & computer lab teacher.
I guess we'll see her name in lights...
MAKENNA... the best nurse/computer lab teacher in the world! Randy and I will be beaming!
