I'm all for letting my kids be whatever they want to be. My parents were awesome about that...and none of us kids do the same kind of work my parents did. Although, I can certainly see my kids in certain types of careers already. For their first Halloween we dressed DS #1 as a chef because he loved to play with pot/pans/food. DS #2 was a doctor because he is very smart/quiet and precise. Funny thing is DS #1 still loves to help me cook (he is almost 3) and we always say DS #2 will either be a doctor or mechanic because he is very precise and loves cars.
At almost 3 years old...
DS #1 is all about being a police officer like daddy or a fireman (close enough) right now.
DS#2 is still my most likely to be a doctor (maybe and optometrist like mommy).
I was recently telling someone that the boys were going to dress up as a police officer and firefighter for Halloween (DS #1's choice) and DD was going to be a doctor/nurse (still have the costume from before). DS #1 proudly INSISTED that DD was going to be an EYE doctor! (Wonder where he got that from)
