Today we were driving in the car and Natalie asked,
"What do they do in law school?"
Before I could answer her, she asked,
"Do they sit around and color pictures?"
I started laughing. I said, "No, they don't color pictures. They learn how to be lawyers."
"Oh. I want to be a lawyer."
So later tonight at dinner she remembered to tell her daddy that she wants to be a lawyer.
Nate said, "You want to be a lawyer? Hey, Natalie, what do lawyers do?"
"They make money."
Nate kind of laughed.
"Dad, how do you make pennies?"
I really started laughing. I'm not quite sure how to explain to a 5 year old what lawyers really do, but I guess I need to explain what it means to go to work and "make" money. No wonder she wanted to be a lawyer...

That's cute. You might try using the word "earn" instead of "make." That seemed to help our girls.
Haley has started asking us where Daddy goes every day. Trevor tells her he's at preschool. Coloring, I'm sure.
I want to learn how to make money too. :)
