Erica, what do you want to be when you grow up?

I was asked this question when I was a wee one and my answer was very.. well.. Tapanga-esque.

I replied to my Aunt Lisa that I just wanted to be "me".

When my aunt and her family visited during New Year's she reminded me of my answer which has always stayed with her. Maybe I was onto something?

This is a picture of myself and another aunt of mine, my Aunt B, at my 4th birthday party.

I was so cute!

Safer to say, I was something else. Haha!

As I sit and type this very moment I can't think of a better answer.

I have never ever strived to be anything or anyone other than myself.

Let's see how my parents like that answer!
