occupational inspiration

saydi was inspired as to her future occupation. a few days ago while crossing the street to school under the direction of the crossing guard, the children escaped certain death from a lady speeding through the intersection. as speeder closed in on the group, the crossing guard jumped forward and let out a scream and holler that Saydi had never heard before. She was very impressed. that was the first time she had seen the crossing guard in defensive action. As we calmed down and finished the walk to school, Saydi told me her observations and said, that's what I could be when I grow up. I said you mean a crossing guard? and she said yes! and I laughed at the instant realization of what she meant and asked 'why, because you can scream?" and she said Yup!!
