This story is better told if I start a year or two back...There we sit, the kids, my parents and myself having a good ol' time at CC's pizza. The bus boy working at the time had downsyndrome. He was very nice and polite and apparently Emma thought he was doing a fantastic job. As we are packing up to leave, Emma stands up on the booth and announces to the entire restaurant, "I want to be just like that guy when I grow up!" How do you respond to that?
Today as the girls and I are grocery shopping, one of the men doing stock started talking to Emma. She proceeded to explain to him that when she grows up she is either going to work at Kroger like he does or become a ballalay girl (ballerina) with a sparkly tutu...The man patted her on the head and walked away shaking his own...
Kinda makes you wonder what will become of these little ones we're all trying so hard to make into amazing people...Only time will tell...
