This little girl is so much fun. And she sure knows what she wants...and it goes beyond what dress she wants to wear everyday or how she wants to wear her hair. A couple months ago, we were decorating cookies and we were telling Ellie how some girls decorate cakes and cookies for a job and asked her if that was something she would like to do when she grew up. Without looking up at us, she simply shook her head and said, "no. I want to be a mom. A mama."
I was so proud. I hope she always has that be her primary career ambition!
Just a few weeks later we were watching someone ply the violin and I asked Ellie if she would like to learn how to play- she promptly nodded her head (she LOVES music) and then quickly asked, "Wait! Can I still be a mama?"
Being a mom is the most fulfilling career (and hobby) I can imagine and I am eternally grateful that I am blessed to be "a mama."
Awesome Ellie! Motherhood is the most fulfilling and challenging (in a good way) endeavor ever!
ReplyDeleteAww! I love that! Have you heard the Janeen Brady song, "When I Grow Up I Want to Be a Mother"? You should get that for her. Zoe loves it and we listen to it over and over again. It is really sweet. It would be perfect for your little Mama to sing along to.
