When Kids Educate Us!!

A friend of mine relayed a story that took place at their dinner table last week.  I thought it was funny, yet true...

They were sitting down eating dinner and the conversation went like this:

Dad: "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

Son:  "A fire-fighter or a marine."

Dad:  "I wanted to be in the military, but I couldn't.  I'm sad, because I really wanted to serve my country."

Son:  "Dad, you DO serve our country!!  You help us have electricity so we can see!!"

The Dad is a coal miner. :-)
