Future Plans

While taking a bath, I am frequently joined by a 4 year old. Then, wouldn't you know it, a very dirty 2 year old will round the corner, already disrobing. Oh well. Not like this will last very long, so I'll take it. They don't even want toys when we're having our group bath, they just want to chat. So, recently I learned that Lily wants to be 3 kinds of teacher; school, ballet and swimming. (The swimming part is new). She also wants to live in another country and teach ballet in outer space. Lily also wants to be a mom and have twins. (Like her friends Emma & Lucas). The twins will be a girl and a boy and she will name them Charlotte and Spike. "It's ok to laugh mommy, because Spike IS a funny name." (Lucas is called spike at school because of his hair). I told her that it sounds like she will be really busy. "Yes, I will be teaching and going to meetings and school." I told her that it is possible to finish school before you have kids and that it is probably a lot easier that way. She say, "No, I want to go to school when I have my babies because that's what my mommy does." DOH! *insert me burying my head here* So I tell this to a friend of mine who is a life learner like myself (as is her husband). She tells me that this is wonderful because it shows how Lily already values education. I'll take it. Thanks Regina!
