a short post. just one amusing story:
on friday, my kids began to play "wedding." it was decided that this little girl, "kate," and this little boy, "james," were to be wed. so they donned the fanciest dress up clothes, kate in a princess hat with a pom-pom for hair, the cinderella dress, and black-and-red lace-up women's shoes, james in a lady wig, two green necklaces, and a cowboy vest. they walked hand in hand to a corner of the room, exchanged pipe cleaner rings, and were officially married. then, james came over to me and asked if i could help him build a wall with some blocks. he and i immediately began work when another boy, "jack," walked up to james and asked him if he had just married kate. "yeah," said james. "then why aren't you playing with her?" asked jack. "i'm building a wall." jack paused for a moment, then asked "well, then could i marry her?" james looked up at him and said, without hesitation, "sure." jack told kate, and she seemed fine with it. ahh, young love.
was that more manageable? :)
