Dr. Karly

Karly has decided that she wants to be a doctor when she grows up. Usually when you ask her why, she'll say: "So I can make people feel better" or "So I can be in the doctor's house."

The choice doesn't surprise me. At three-years-old, she's already worried about everyone's "ouchies" and loves to play with bandaids and "check you up" with her new medical kit.

While Pop Pop was here, I asked her again what she wanted to be when she grew up.

"A doctor."

I prodded her a little more. "And why?'

She turned and looked at me like I should surely know. But when I asked her again why she wanted to be a doctor, she replied with a new answer:

"Because I want to be in charge!"
