what i wish for

I don’t have especially high expectation for my kids.  By that I mean, I don’t expect them to be doctors, rock stars, or award-winning journalists.  All that would be wonderful but what they decide to do with their life is neither here nor there to me.   

I do want them to find their passion, though. Maybe they’ll be taking orders and waiting tables by day, but as long as they are doing something that matters to them, that makes them happy, that gives them peace by night?  I’ve done the only job I’m supposed to do here.

And I want them to think for themselves.  So while this may look like a kid wearing a brown paper bag and pretending to be a Superhero, this was the first time he took something and created his own something with absolute no guidance, or goading, from me.  He’s starting to think for himself (and for Curious George) and I like that.
