The Fickle Hearted (2 Comments)
We ate at McDonald’s after church today because we had another thing going on in town later in the afternoon. We had enough time after we ate for the kids to play a little bit. It’s been awhile since they have been able to play there.
When we were driving off, Pixie announced that she had a new boyfriend.
Oh?
“One of the boys that was at the play area.”
I see, what was his name?
“I don’t remember, he told me once but that was all.”
Uh huh. Well, you’ll have to tell the boy you are going to marry.
She looks at me funny, like she doesn’t really understand why she would have to do this.
“No.”
We may have had a breakdown in communication there- I was thinking of the serious meaning of “boyfriend” and she may have been thinking that he was a boy and is now a friend. But this hadn’t clicked with me yet so I asked Aren’t you going to marry the boy you’ve been saying you were going to marry?
She sighs, “I don’t know who I am going to marry.”
Into this introspective moment Miss Sunshines pops in with:
“I don’t know WHAT I’m going to marry!”
Too funny. Glad Sam isn’t the only one.

Yes, it’s hard to stick to your decisions when you are only 6 and a whole world of people waits before you. 🙂
I don’t know about picking up strange boys at McDonald’s though.
