Just a little something I want to remember...
Tonight, Sam was fixated on what he should be when he grows up. We threw out a few of the usual subjects...truck driver, doctor, construction worker, teacher. He got a far away look in his eyes as if he were actually looking toward the future. Finally, he turned, looked at me with a sideways glance and said:
"I think I just want to be a father." (Of course he doesn't know how difficult it is to be "just a father!")
A few minutes later, he added,
"I know, I can be a caretaker."
I asked him to explain and he said, "you know, I can take care of children. But I can't take care of too many children at one time. I don't want a whole bunch of mommies leaving their babies with me! I wouldn't be able to handle that."
Oh my Sammy.
