Job Ideas

Andrew and Alex were helping us brainstorm job ideas for us in light of Mark's job loss:

Alex: "Maybe Mommy can work too! She can watch people's kids or be a secretary again!"

Andrew: "How about the hand stamper at the dinosaur museum?"

Alex: "Or she could work at a store?"

Andrew: "Mommy can open a preschool. And I'll be her assistant teacher."

Alex: "Andrew. Our BASEMENT isn't finished."

Andrew: "Mommy can teach in the kitchen or maybe Santa will finish our basement."

Alex: "Yeah."

Andrew: "How about Daddy looks for a job in LAS VEGAS! Or in California so we can go to Disneyland."

Alex: "How about they work IN Disneyland!"

Mommy: "We're going to look for work near our house. Those sound like fun ideas but we would have a hard time selling this house to move to Las Vegas or California."

Andrew: "Maybe we can ask our friends to buy our house and then we can move to a new house. I don't want to live in a house. I want to live in (pause, pause, wait for it) Disneyland!"

Alex: "Andrew, Disneyland isn't a place you live. Its a place you go to on vacation."

Andrew: "Well, you said Mickey Mouse lives there."
