Zachary came to work with me early today to take a flight with Andrea (Scott's cousin who has been our babysitter for the last few months) to go to Sechelt*. In the car on the way Zachary's sweet little voice from the back said "Mommy... know what I want to be when I grow up?"
He started to list off a few things, first with race car driver, then rescue guy... so I asked "like a fireman?". So along with race car driver, fire/rescue guy, scoop driver (scoop is a character from Bob the Builder... an excavator) he would also like to be a house builder. I asked him if he would like to build homes for those who do not have homes.
"You tell me who needs a house and I will come build it for them." he replied.
I love that most of what he wants to do involves helping others. He is going to grow up to do some amazing things, I can see it in his eyes.
*Andrea and her fiance Zack live in Sechelt. Sechelt is a small town along the sunshine coast of beautiful British Columbia. I highly recommend that if you are in or around the Vancouver area to check it out.
