fighter pilot versus water delivery guy
Christopher has been very fascinated with fighter jets lately. Hard to blame him. We live on a fighter base, we see them flying all the time, we hear them flying all the time, we have great friends who actually fly them...he is surrounded by them in this environment.
He has been saying for weeks now that when he grows up, he wants to fly those jet planes. I have been encouraging him to do so. Telling him, that if he wants to fly those planes, he needs to come do more school work, needs to read and know how to write. Because all pilots have to read and write.
Just 2 days ago he wanted books on jets at the bookstore!
A few minutes ago, as I was unloading the groceries, he comes up to me and says,
"Mommy, I don't want to be a fighter pilot anymore. I want to be the guy who delivers the water."
Well, I told him that water guys still have to know how to read and write because they have to know where to drive the truck to. He was fine with that.
You just never know what is going through their minds. :)
