I Don’t Know What To Think About This

“Mama, who am I going to marry?” asked Katelyn the other day.

“Sweetie, I don’t know. God will give you someone to marry when you get older.”

” Can I  marry daddy?”

“No, you can’t marry daddy. I’m married to daddy”

“But when you’re done with daddy can I marry him?”

” Uh.No”

“How about Papa. Can I marry him?”

“Nope. Papa is married to Nana. And… He’s your Papa”

“Can Garrett (her cousin) marry me?”

“Sweetie, no, you have to marry someone who isn’t in your family

“Ok, how about Eddie?” (He’s a boy in her class and also the son/grandson of longtime friends of ours and Mike’s family”

“Well…. that’s a possibility I guess!”

(These were taken a couple of weeks ago after school had let out. They had both sit (sat?) down to chat and we snapped a few quick photos)

Will we be showing these pictures at her wedding in the future I wonder?

So weird to even ponder…

    Hahaha! I love it! It’s so funny that girls her (and Garrett’s) age are already pondering this. I don’t think the husband/wife/marriage concept has even crossed Garrett’s mind. And I love that she mentioned Garrett as a future spouse. :) But if you meet someone at a family reunion, they’re probably not spouse material. haha
    Cute pictures!

    How cute was that? It is so fun to watch them grow. When she is 17 it will be fun to share that story with her.

    I thought I had commented on this blog, but it looks like I haven’t:(
    How cute for her to be thinking about that subject already. I’m not sure you think it’s so cute right now. She thinks about too many things already that you would think older kids would be thinking about:) Cute pictures:O)
