Conversations with My Kids

This is a conversation that takes place between Caleigh and John every Monday through Friday. Usually it has the same ending...but the other day we got something different...

Caleigh: Daddy I missed you when you were at work.
Daddy: I missed you while I was at work.
Caleigh: I don't work.
Daddy: When you get older are you going to work?

This usually where Caleigh says no and the conversation ends. And knowing how Caleigh is, this isn't much of a shock. This girl may never want to work a day in her life...but you can bet she wants to be taken care of. So I'll continue with our glimmer of hope...

Caleigh: Yep
Daddy: Really? What do you want to do when you grow up?
Caleigh: I want to work at home and be a princess and make money.

Mommy: Honey that's called marrying rich....good luck.

Sigh....see it was only a glimmer of hope. Fair warning to any potential suitors…our daughter wants to be a princess at home and make lots of money. Please send in your suggestions on how this might be possible. I'd hate to squash her dream!
