Job Search

The other day my three year old niece definitively announced that when she grows up she wants to be a paleontologist. It blows my mind that she even knows what a paleontologist is--let alone that she has decided on it as her life long profession. Oh to be a kid again and to feel like anything is a possibility! Her decisive announcement made me think that maybe I could just let her decide what I should do with my life. No doubt that her suggestions will broaden my options--paleontologist, actress, princess, mermaid . . . Who knew that my "professional" options were so vast?
