I Was Speechless
08/23/2019


I had to share this moment with my 3-year-old granddaughter. I know you will get a kick out of this.

I am always telling her she should be a doctor she grows up. She has a little doctor kit that she uses to check your heart, your ears and take your temperature. She was sitting on my lap looking at one of her books when I asked her, "What do you want to be when you grow up? A doctor?" She said nothing.

Her mother sitting across from me asked her again, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Without looking up or skipping a beat, she said "I just want to be Katie." I told her that would be fine with me! 

I was speechless. A child coming up with that answer was incredible!
