Me: "How was school, Will? What did you do?"

Will: "I told my friend a sad story about kindergarten."

Me: "A sad story?"

Will: "About my girlfriend."

Me: "Your girlfriend? Can I hear the story?"

Will: "The characters are...Maya, me, and Nicolas."

Me: "Okay..."

Will: "Maya was my girlfriend in kindergarten. Nicolas is the bad guy in this story."
Me: "Got it."

Will: "Unfortunately, he stole my girlfriend."

Me: "Oh no! I'm so sorry."

Will: "There's a song too."

Me: "A song you made up?"

Will: "Yeah. But I don't want to sing it for you."

Me: "Okay. But if you ever feel like singing it, I'd love to hear it, and I bet Annie would too."

Annie nods.

Will: "Well, you might hear it on the radio."

Me: "On the radio?"

Will: "Yeah, when I grow up I want to be an actor."

Me: "An actor that sings?"

Will: "Yes."

Me: "And will you play any instruments?"

Will: "I think I'm going to sing while I play the violin."

Me: "I see."

Annie: "I'm going to be a ballerina when I grow up."
