When I Grow Up

This one is for Kelsey, Ryan's sister. When we go camping I snuggle her by the fire.

I love all the babies in the whole wide world. I love Ainsley and Coulter and Carter and Oaklie and baby dinosaurs. But dinosaur babies are not like people babies. Like you can't trim a baby dinosaur's toenails because nobody has clippers that could do it.

I don't want to grow up because when you grow up you don't play any more, you just go to work all day. When I grow up I will be a paleontologist that finds dinosaur bones. I will look somewhere in the mountains and in the desert and in the jungle. Maybe there's dinosaur bones under my house!

Grown-up dinosaurs hunted and got leaves for the baby dinosaurs. When the babies get older the grown-ups teach them how to hunt. Then when they're 5 years old they hunt for themselves. I don't hunt because I'm not a dinosaur. Momma and dadda just make my food. I will start making my own food when I am 43.
