Overheard

Today while driving the kids to gymnastics, I heard an unusually meaningful sigh from the backseat.

Me: What?

Maddie: It's just that there's so many things to be when I grow up.

Me: Like what?

Maddie: Like a teacher. Or a potter. Or a police girl. I could also be a deep sea diver, since I love deep sea animals.

Me: Yeah.

Maddie: I could be a school-bus driver.

Me: You could. (Arrgh! The politically correct world prevents me from saying, 'School bus drivers are usually school dropouts or perverts, honey.' Instead, I just shake my head in agreement.)
