When I Grow Up
As a kid, I dont remember aspiring to be anything when i grew up. Maybe as a really little kid, but not when i was "old enough to remember." So when the girls are future-focused, i take notice.
Nissa has the strongest focus so far. The focus changes, but still backed by fierce determination with every shift.
Her fist declaration was to be a paleontologist, just like doctor scott on dinosaur train. For a bit, she wanted to be a fireworks technician. Then she wanted to be a mommy and ___ . The and varied, but paleontologist stuck around for a while, also swimming instructor, gymnastics instructor, and i think guitar teacher, too.
The latest, of which i am most proud and excited, is engineer. Her vision is almost magician-like: when she gets older, she is going to invent anything and everything. She foresees no practical limits on what she will be able to make by being an engineer, it is inspiring. I need to write some ideas down!!
