“I never dreamed I would have a job in a grocery,” added
Kim, “but I think it’s going to be a good job for me.”
“It may not be the job of your dreams,” said her mom.
“But it’s a job. The next job you get can be better. And the
next one can be even better. If you study hard in college,
you will have a chance to get the job of your dreams some
day. Until then, just do a good job and save as much of your
paycheck as you can.”
“I will,” said Kim.
“Let’s do something fun!” said Kurt.
“I know!” said their mom. “Let’s celebrate Kim’s new job
by getting some subs and snacks and going down to Battery
Park for a picnic. Are you two hungry for dinner?”
“You bet!” said Kurt.
