Career Day

Today is Career Day at Trey's school. His homework this week: choose what career you would like to enter, answer some questions about that profession and dress up for that job today. In the past Trey has always told me he wanted to be a gym teacher, then in the past couple of weeks he has wanted to be an NBA player. So, I was a little surprised Monday night when I was reading the homework paper and I asked Trey one more time--What do you want to be when you grow up AND he replied a Rock Star Clown. Who comes up with that? Have you ever met a Rock Star Clown? Monday night he was dead set on being a Rock Star Clown.

I didn't mention the homework again until last night. Honestly, I was a little worried about what the answer might be. He wanted to be a surfer. I asked him how he was going to be a surfer, living in OHIO, without an ocean around. He then told me he is going to go to college in Florida. So then I told him that is not too realistic. He finally settled on being an NFL running back that plays in Arizona. Great, he dressed up this morning in his Ohio State jersey & Bengals helmet--super cute I must say.

We were getting ready to walk out the door and he says, "Mom, I know what I should have chosen to be my career. I should have said a Vegetarian." I chuckled and told him that is not really a job. I'm not sure if he met Veterinarian or not, we were having a hard time getting out the door this morning and I just needed him to hurry up.
