		<description>My parents used to always tell me to do what makes me happy. It took me forever to figure out what that would be- but I finally found my niche. I&#039;m  not rich at all, but I&#039;ve learned in my life that money doesn&#039;t necessarily make ya happy. And I love, love, love what I do!

I bet you&#039;re an awesome mom! I like how you handle your child&#039;s questions!

		<description>Robin, I have a degree in theatre. &#039;nuff said. LOL. :-)
Jane, I learned my lesson here: DO NOT overthink things. Sometimes they do have a very different perspective from adults. I wonder where the &quot;transition&quot; is, and I do hope that they never become so jaded when they grow up.  
Mama, ;-)  Man. According to my MIL, I just have to wait till 25 for everything to get better. LOL.</description>

		<description>Ahh, the innocence of the young.  He&#039;ll probably want to be 35 other things before he gets through with high school.

		<description>I love a child&#039;s perspective! My daugther one time asked if we were poor because we only had one TV. I told her, No. We CHOOSE to only have one TV. It is so interesting to me how perspective is shaped by us as parents, their peers, the media. But so beautiful that your son&#039;s interpretation of &quot;rich&quot; is being able to afford his own house.
