When I grow up....

Mari: Mommy, I decided I don't wanna be a nurse when I'm bigger. I wanna be a firefighter.

Me: That's cool, Mari. You can be whatever you want to be. A firefighter is a very brave thing to be.

Mari: Brave? Why is it brave?

Me: It takes a very brave person to fight fires.

Mari: FIRE? I don't like fire!! I'm not getting near any fires!!!!!

Me: (silence)


She's rendered me speechless again.

  2. That's hilarious!!! She is such a cutie!!! It reminds me of several conversations I've had with my own munchkin. I've had to put the "quizzical look" into heavy rotation around here :-)
