A conversation with my 4-year old...
"I get to lead the way!"
We were playing on the snow piles by our house.

"Is that Daddy's car? It's not momma's because her car is red."
"What do you want to drive when you get big?"
"I don't know"

"Owen, how old do you have to be to drive a car?"
"Twenty-nine!"
"oh really? what will you be doing when you're 29? Still living at home? I hope not. I hope you will live on your own before you are 29. Just don't move too far. I want you to stay close to me."
"I'm going to live in Florida!"
"Then Daddy and I will move to Florida too!"
"Then I'm going to move to California!"
"Then we will follow you there too!"
"If you come there, I will move to Colorado!"
Then we will find you in Colorado as well!"
"Then I'm going to move FAR AWAY!"
"No matter where you go, I will find you."
"Let's go home...I get to lead the way!"

He is certainly growing up and getting big ideas about where he wants to live someday! It just goes to show what a well-traveled child he is!
