Prince Charming

My sister Hope is expecting a baby soon and she and her husband have decided not to find out what they are having. Driving in the car today, Bryn out of the blue said she can’t wait to see Hopie’s baby since she does not know if the baby is a boy or girl. I asked her what she thought the baby was. She said, a girl. I asked Jadyn the same question. Jadyn thought it was a boy.

Then she said she can’t wait to see if he is handsome or not, because if it was, she was going to marry him. After laughing, I said you don’t marry family, but you marry a friend. Jadyn did her best job of rolling her eyes at me and said she knew that…she was going to marry him when they both grew up! Evidently, family is only family until you are grown.

Then Bryn chimed in that, no, you can not marry family, you must marry a prince. She then called out by name all the boys in her class she might one day marry.

I guess calling the girls princess has really sunk in.
