What Do You Want To Be?


Here’s a conversation I overheard in the backseat on Tuesday:


Lily:  Kimball (a preschool friend) wants to go to the pyramids when he grows up.

Me:  That’s fun.  What do you want to be when you grow up?

Lily:  I want to be a construction worker.

Ava:  I want to be a scientist.

Piper:  I want to be a pony.

Lily:  I want to ride ponies when I grow up.

Ava:  You could ride Piper!


(pause)


Ava:  Piper you can’t be a pony when you grow up.

Piper:  I WANT to be a pony!!!

Lily (sweetly):  You can ask God to make you a pony.

Later that day, Ava drew a picture of/for Piper:
