I want to be a painter someday, or maybe a...

Skyler said that someday he wants to be a painter. I asked him if he wanted to paint buildings & houses or pictures and he told me that he wanted to paint ALL of it - EVERYTHING (with big sweeping motions of his arms). I said that would be great if he was a painter and that he had already started because he paints pictures all the time. Then he said, "No, I know what I want to do, I want to find dead." I said "Find dead, what kind of dead?" He told me that he wanted to find really BIG dead (again with the big sweeping arms). I said that maybe he would like to become an archaeologist or a paleontologist and find BIG dinosaur bones and fossils of things that died a long time ago. He said that would be great. I told him that if he studies and learns a lot in school that he could have a lot of fun finding dead someday! And yes, I will remind of this when he doesn’t want to do his homework!
