Funny Moments with our Kids

Carli has had this undying curiosity about who she is going to marry lately. She approached Brian and I very seriously one night while we were at our pool swimming and said "Guys what if God gives me a dumb prince?" She explained to us that she doesn't want a dumb one, she wants a smart cute prince. Then she asked us a million ?s about how we knew we wanted to marry eachother etc. She said she just wants to know who she will marry and wants to know when it will happen. She then asked if she has to have her baby out of her belly or if she can go to China for her baby. She informed us that she does NOT want to have her baby out of her belly and
wondered how long after she gets married can she go to China for her baby. Aren't kids so smart with the things they come up with. We had this long sweet conversation with her and there was NO convincing the girl that she really doesn't need to worry about this RIGHT NOW. We finally talked her into focusing on going to Kindergarten next week instead but then today the ?s about marriage came up again. That girl keeps us on our toes (well they all do actually)

I picked a post that didn't have a comment - look Nettie, a comment!:)

That is so sweet about Carli. I remember Alec going thru a phase about having to live at college. He just never wanted to leave home and didn't understand why anyone would LIVE at school.

Tell Carli not to worry about her prince. Aunt Niki will help her find a good one. We just have to sift through all the frogs!

Love to all,
Niki
