Man finds his 2nd-grade note about having '35 kids' in his mid-30s - his wife has the best response
If you recall the time you were a kid, you will recount the many dreams you may have had. Right from wanting to be an astronaut to having purple hair and even having cereal all day, kids have bizarre dreams. Their creativity and imagination render some of the most hilarious and wholesome wishes. A man, Jake, who goes by u/SoHornyBeaver on Reddit, revealed a collection of wishes he had in the second grade and we’re bawling with laughter. The man’s wife stumbled upon his assignment and one of the jaw-dropping statements about having “35 kids,” elicited an adorable response from his wife, per Newsweek.
The assignment consisted of a list of things then-toddler Jake expected to have achieved by the time he made it to 35. "When I'm 35. I'll be married to Courtney. I'll be an actor or a singer or a brain surgeon,” he wrote. “I'll have 35 kids and each one will have a limo. I'll live in Beverly Hills and I'll drive a limo, Corvette Convertible, Lamborghini, Ferrari and a Porsche all mixed together.” he noted. Jake was sure of what he wanted, even if it wasn’t a tangible idea and one can only applaud his creativity. Continuing, he mentioned, "Courtney and I will buy Bermuda and the rainforest. Every summer, I will go to one of those places."
He even drew a picture of his future self with the grand life he had planned. "I would have a tattoo on my arm of an anchor, like GI Joe, Shipwreck. I would have another tattoo of an 'N' so that people would know I liked Nintendo. I'd sport a sweet mustache and walk about shirtless with a hairy chest,” he described his drawing. But that was not all. Jake noted, “I would have a 1000-yard stare and a scar on my face, a battle wound from being a badass mercenary." The scar and eyes on his drawing spoke for his out-of-the-world dreams. "I thought I would grow up to be some sort of mercenary,” he remarked. Jake revealed that he didn’t fulfill all those badass dreams, definitely not the 35 kids.
He wrote, “Today, I do not own Bermuda or a single square foot of rainforest. I'm +40 and live in East Tennessee." He added that his wife's name isn't Courtney and he's got only 2 and not 35 children. What struck people the most was the thought of him having the luxury cars mixed into a single model and the wild idea of having 35 kids. His wife, who initially stumbled upon the assignment and read the dreaded number “35,” couldn’t help but burst into laughter. "From the next room, I heard her laughing. She set this one aside and said I had to look at it," Jake recalled.
People, too, were baffled by the drawing, which Jake gladly recalled in detail. In another comment, he mentioned, “The headstones (on the top of the cars) are gun turrets. The back of the car has the convertible top folded back and there's a tail, like the Lambos had at the time. Also, you'll see there's a jail cell to put bad guys at the back of the limo too.” u/AngryDuck222 hilariously wrote, “Now I want a 'porchelamboferaraghini'!” u/OliveTheory commented about the "35 kids," saying, “Eleven sets of triplets and one set of twins. She'd better install a zipper.” u/Educational_Gas_92 said, “How are the vacations in Bermuda and rainforests? I want pictures and videos.” u/StringFriendly7976 exclaimed, “ I love all of this. Haha!”
