For the first time in more than a year the thought popped in my head, "I should blog about that." So, here I am.
Lucas, now in 3rd grade, has talked about being an engineer since kindergarten (or perhaps even earlier?). His handmade K "graduation" cap said: I want to be a ngeer, which his teacher helpfully translated into engineer for us.
Last night's homework included an assignment to research different types of engineers, ID five different types of engineers and briefly describe what they do.
One of the five Lucas selected was nuclear engineer and he told me that nuclear engineers "work with the insides of atoms."
What? I literally Googled fusion to see if he was right. He was.
I do believe this kid is indeed going to be an engineer one day. He's clearly already smarter than his mama in this area!
