I always wanted my kids to want to do that kind of stuff. One of them was a docent at a science museum for a little while when he was 14. (He worked in the Lego lab--perfect for him!) My youngest only wanted paying jobs...so he starts his Bat Boy stint for the new AAA team on next week! He's 14, too. It was very cute to watch him go through the application process. He said to the interviewer..."This is my first interview. Can my mom come in with me?" He answered the standard interview questions very well, as if they were literal questions, without trying to slant his answer to what they wanted to hear. I'm very proud of him.

Congratulations to Em!
