more time

With every new school year comes new friendships. For the past few weeks I have heard many things about many of the kids in Anna's class and how much fun she has with each of them. This Friday I had the opportunity to spend time with a few of these new friends (and their moms) when we went to a local apple orchard on a sunny warm day. During our time there I noticed that Anna spent quite a bit of time with one of the boys - Robbie. Robbie's mom mentioned to me that he was quite enamored with Anna and that her name came up quite often. I then laughed as I watched him make sure he was next to Anna for lunch, and how the two of them really seemed to enjoy playing together.

The next morning the following conversation took place:

Anna: "Daddy, there's this boy Robbie at school...and he keeps saying he's going to marry me"
Steve: "Oh yeah?"
Anna: "But, I just say no, because I need more time to really think about who I want to marry"

HA!! Gotta love that! Let's hope that keeps up until about age 30.
