what`s your original dream?

Ever since I was probably about 3 or 4 I've wanted to be a paleontologist. I've always thought it would be fascinating work, I wanted to go to different places (especially Africa) and dig for fossils and piece them together and discover things. I thought it would be the best thing ever! Then when I hit about 14 or 15 I realized that what I really wanted was a family and the last thing I wanted was to be traveling so much that I didn't get much time to spend with my family. Or, even worse, to drag my family along with me traveling. I wanted my kids to be able to grow up in one school and lead (somewhat) normal lives. So I decided I wanted to be a computer programmer so that hopefully one day when I have children I can get a job from home so I can be home with them and be a housewife. So, as of now, my dream is still to be a housewife with a computer programmer job on the side. The family always comes first, of course, but I think I would go insane if I didn't have some sort of job that would bring in a decent amount of income. ^_^
