High Hopes

Keep looking up!

Recently, I was asking the girls what they wanted to be when they grow up.  Shelby said "a doctor that gives people lots of shots to make them feel better."  Ah, so sweet!  Then, it was Haley's turn.  Here's how it went:

Me: Haley, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Haley:  Um...um...(eyes turned to the ceiling)...um...BEER!
Me:  You want to be a beer when you grow up?
Haley: No, DRINK beer!
Me:  Okay, you can drink as much as you want...when you are 30.  Just remember that if you drink too much, you will get very sick.

Becoming a beer drinker looks like a huge success compared to Shelby's next discovery. Bryon had the girls painting the walls in the garage.  Shelby was doing great until she exclaimed, "This smells great, Dad!"  Paint huffer isn't exactly a parent's dream for their kid's career path.  Let's just stick with the shot-giving-doctor path!
