"Mama, do you take naps in kindergarten?" Blake said.
"I think you have some quiet time. But in first grade, there's no more quiet time. It's all work." I told him.
"First grade is after kindergarten. Then second grade. Then third grade, fourth, fifth. What comes next?"
"Sixth."
"Then seventh, eighth, ninth, 10th. Then are the grades are over."
"No," I told him. "Then 11th and 12th, and then college."
"What comes after college?"
"It depends. You could get a job or go to more school like medical school or dental school. It depends on what you want to be."
"Well, I'd really like to be a super hero. A super hero needs a cape and a suit. The kind of suit depends on the kind of superhero you are."
I wonder where he can major in super heroism....

well, you could send him through the cal state or u.c. system, wherein, he would be able to design his own major, no matter how ludicrous.
ps. let him know he gets back naptime in college.
But Mo, then he might not go to college!
Superhero seems like an achievable goal. Mine wants to be a whale shark when he grows up.
