His Greatest Dream

His Greatest Dream


I was helping my son answer an autograph book one day…

Boy : name…

Me : (He read it and answered by himself! Very good…)

Boy : (slowly) nick…name. Mommy, what’s a nickname?

Me : That’s the name everybody calls you.

Boy : But my name and nickname is the same, do I have to write it twice?

Me : yes, for some other people, it’s not the same, so they ask that question.

Boy : (continuing to read slowly and answer… address, birthday, likes, dislikes and so
on)hmmm… greatest dream… but I don’t remember my dreams…

Me : No, not your dreams at night. it means, what do you want to be when you grow up.

Boy : hmmm… (thinking really hard and for a long time)

Boy : I want to be a billionaire!

Me : Umm, don’t you have any other higher goals?
(I was thinking of other lofty aspirations like having solid career or a loving
family…)

Boy : I got it! I want to be a trillionnaire!!!
