When he grows up...

Jace had career day at preschool. Up till this point Jace has never mentioned what he wants to be when he grows up {except a superhero, duh}. So I was interested to see what he would pick for career day. I prepped him by telling him about all sorts of careers. He didn’t seem particularly interested in any of them. A day or two before career day I asked him again what he wanted to be when he grew up. He told me that he just wanted to be “whatever daddy be’s when he’s at work.”

So we made him an official badge, packed his briefcase, and sent the itty bitty electrical engineer off to work.

He looked so cute.

Now we just need to teach him what an engineer actually does. Well not "we" -- mainly just Spencer. Because honestly, I'm with Jace. I'm not entirely certain what Spencer does at work either.

For the record, I am a bit relieved that he chose a different career than his big sister. I mean - not to judge - but I’m just assuming it’s fairly hard to support a family on an ice-cream truck driver salary.
