What do your kids want to be?

DS has now changed his answer to "super hero". No more train engineer. Lol.

Judging from the amount of rocks I find in every room, drawer, shelf, coat pocket, and crevice of our house, a geologist.

Our kids could be BFFs! DD2 collects rocks from everywhere we go. She's constantly got a fist full of "nature" to bring home for her "collection."

+2 to geologists for both kids.

DS freaked out when he found out that people bake and design cakes for a living. Currently that's what he wants to be.

DS will tell anyone he wants to be a firefighter just like his daddy. Kids already asking where his gear is and which truck he gets to learn to operate first.

DS wants to be the poop robot on the Spongebob movie...? He saw it with his dad and lurved it. I think he will be a quality control engineer. He's really good at figuring out if something is destructible.

DD wants to be a princess in a dress. That's it. We're working on expanding her horizons.

DS1 wants to be an ambulance. Not an ambulance driver, but an actual ambulance.

saraml13 - at 3 DS wanted to be a fire truck!! Ha!

[k3am]

saraml13, 2chatter, our kids can all work together.

A hospital, an ambulance, and a firetruck. So sweet.

A scientist or a "cooker" AND a singer and a person who has a lot of dogs.

DS is 4; he currently wants to be the boss and tell people what to do. He came home from DC a few months ago and told me he and his friends were writing an app on the computer and he was the boss. I asked if he wanted to be a programmer when he grew up, and he sighed and rolled his eyes at me and said "Mommmmmmy, I already AM!" So.

Police woman, apparently, as she answered at pre-k graduation. That's the first we'd heard of that.

DD wants to be a vet, a doctor, a horse rancher. She also comes up with the social-justice minded ideas, like rehabbing houses for the homeless to give to them (apparently she will also have lots of money). I'm trying to steer her away from social work, which is what her dad and I both are.
