having a little girl point to me and say, "Mommy, I want to be like her when I grow up!"

.

It is rewarding.
I participate in a lot of theatre.
Last year I was working on “A Christmas Carol” (not my most mature role, granted), this seven year old I met at a church came up to me after a performance and says,
“I want to be just like you when I grow up”
later, when I saw her mother, her mom says to me, “You know our Lauren really does admire you…”

It was sweet.
I feel unworthy.

okay. so i volunteer at this church. cool, right? lol. so i’m helping this little girl work on her Bible craft and she’s only about 4. she can’t handle scissors very well and we were cutting out masks. so she asks me to help her cut the mask out. i start cutting it for her when she suddenly says, ‘wow. you’re a really good cutter. i wanna be a good cutter just like you when i grow up.’ it was so cute. i’d die to have someone with so much innocence tell me they’d like to be like me when they grow up again.

It was really special to me the day my niece’s little friend told me she wanted to be just like me when she grew up. Of course, I’m sure it’s just because I’m a teenager and don’t live at home anymore, but it was still sweet.

It will be awesome, just cuz i have nuttin to live in this fuckin’ world and it’ll be great to see a lil girl telling his mom/dad she wanna be like me…i’ll feel proud, though i’d like to do something so the girl wants to be like me, not only for my apeareance…

Mainly because the mother would get her into therapy so fast her feet wouldn’t touch the ground

Why not?
