When I Grow Up I Wanna Be. . .

Well, Colt and I had a heart-to-heart today. We were talking about the future, and though I do hope the Lord returns before Colt grows up. . . we were discussing what he was thinking about his future. Of course our prayer is that he gives his heart to the Lord and serves Him – whatever the occupation . I just had to explain that you don’t have to be in “full-time ministry” to be a witness in the workplace. So here are some things that he is interested in at the moment:Professional bubble blower. . . maybe he’ll do birthday parties or celebrations of some other sort. He promptly repeated “bubble” though after I said it. hmmm. . . that would be the first I think. Moving on. . .
A race car driver? Like the Daytona 500 (or whatever that is called). . . ?
“Gentlemen mount your horses. . . I mean, start your engines!”
A mechanic? He was fixing the horn here (notice the tongue sticking out in utter concentration) – I hope he doesn’t have road rage. . . he sure was beeping a lot.
A construction worker? What boy doesn’t like big trucks and dirt?
A baby model? – – not sure about that one son. . .
Lawn and garden landscaping? Good, Mommy needs some help in that area!
A professional basketball player? Nana Gail and Gramps like to watch basketball right?
He’s got the dribble down pat, but he’s struggling with dribbling in between the legs. . . they are just too short right now!
I know the Lord has a special plan for this special boy.

He’ll be 11 months old tomorrow and officially started walking today. He’s been taking like 3-4 steps, but he’s up to a good 8-10 now. It’s quite amusing how he plops down and his hair flaps in the wind. haha. He just keeps going though. I think knee pads would be a nice addition to his everyday wardrobe.
