Quote from K: my daughter the bear-hunter
K: I think I am not going to get married when I grow up. Because I don't want to get pregnant.
Me: Um... (deciding not to get into birth control just yet with the 5-year-old) That's okay, you don't have to do either.
K: Because I want to be a bear hunter. And when I am climbing mountains hunting bears, I might fall down and then my baby might die.
Me: Well, sometimes pregnant women fall down and the baby is okay. But yes, it is a risk. You know, sometimes when women get pregnant they keep working their job until it gets too uncomfortable and then they take a break for a while.
K: Yes, but I don't want to. I want to keep being a bear hunter.
About 10 minutes later, she told me that if she ever sees her best friend from preschool again, she is going to marry him, because she loves him. I decided not to ask about the bear hunting career.
