You should definitely be a writer! You have a gift for it!
I wanted to be Vanna White when I was in elementary school. : )
I wanted to be a teacher & a mom, but turns out I suck at both of them.
Teaching was the most exhausting thing I've ever done; turns out I like kids but not 20 of them at once. If I could go back, I'd love to be a literacy specialist; when we lived in Malaysia, I taught older kids who had never learned to read. It made me really interested in the whole process of learning, and I'd love to work one on one with kids.
And being a SAHM is pretty exhausting, too. I'm not a self-starter, so although I have big ideas about teaching Ari at home, I never can get my act together to make it happen. And playing tea party and Barbies isn't fun for me, though I know it is a blessing to get to be a part of her everyday life.
