Awesome Moments

I have some of the best conversations with Sean as we are driving home from school. For the past week, he has asked me EVERYDAY if he can play golf when he gets home. To which I reply, that he needs to wait til the sun goes down a bit, it's too hot. Yesterday, I explained that golfers get up very early in the morning to play when it's cooler so they don't overheat and melt. Today he asked me if he could play golf when he gets home. I told him that he needed to wait til the sun goes down. He said ok. Then he said, Mom, can you get me one of those "golfing suits". I said, What?... he said what the golfers wear when they play. I said, well you kind of have on now what a golfer would wear. I told him that they wear a collared shirt like he has on today, and usually shorts or some kind of pants that aren't jeans. He tells me, "well, I need to remember to bring my clubs, extra balls, my tees, extra gloves, cold water so I don't get too hot." I said that sounds good, it looks like you've got it all covered. You'll have to tell Grandpa Steve about your plan, he can help you be a great golfer. He said he would.




Then he said, I just can't decide what I want to be when I grow up Mom!... I want to be a Firefighter, Lifeguard and Golfer. I said Oh, that sounds good.. well you could probably figure out a way to do all of those jobs if you really wanted to when you grow up. I said, a lifeguard usually only works in the summer, and firefighters get every other day off, so you could golf on the days that you aren't being a firefighter. So this is what he came up with... He said he's going to be a Fireman on Tuesdays, a Golfer on Fridays and a lifeguard on Saturdays. I said, that sounds like the best schedule!
