Hmmm...What Do I Want To Be When I Grow Up?

I had taken my dad to the doctor's office. My son went with us. He was asking me to explain a poster that was hanging up in the doctor's office. I explained to him that was a kidney, lung, heart, etc.

Then I had asked him in front of my dad, if he was planning to be a doctor. He said, "No, I want to be a chef. No, I want to be like you or my daddy." I told him that I was a teacher. He then asked what did daddy do. I told him, he was a forklift driver.

I then asked him, "What if daddy doesn't want you to be a forklift driver?"

He thought about for one second, and then replied, "I will then be a Walmart guy." I continued to ask him what if his dad said no.

Determined and confident, my son replied, "Then I will be a Super-Walmart guy."
