To My Boys

Dear Sushi,
Today you asked me what I do at work. To satisfy your curious mind, I went into detail about education plan, college, degrees and occupation. I know that’s way too advanced for your age. But I know you understood them. You’re only 7 but you talk like your 18 and insist you’ll be a “different kind of teenager.” You know now that life is not all about you, and that there’s a bigger world out there that you have yet to discover and explore. You make me proud.

Dear Sashimi,
Every time we pass by the Purolator building, you say that is your office. You’re only 3 and you already want to go to work.

Please don’t grow up too fast.

XOXO,
Mom
