Overheard

Nathan did some art today. He and I were talking about it before he went to bed.

"Nathan," I said. "Do you want to be an artist when you grow up?"

"No," Nathan replied.

I continued three more times. "Do you want to be an astronaut? A Fireman? A Teacher?"

"No" he responded, simply, each time.

"Nathan, would you like to be in Marketing when you grow up?"

Nathan produced a confused look and a large grin as he responded, "no."

In the same breath, he enthusiastically continued "I want to be a WOLF! But not a mean wolf. I'll be a nice wolf. And I won't scare the girls. When I'm bigger. "
