The other night while tucking Jane in (she likes me to lay with her for a while), she says:
Jane: "Mom, why do you and dad sleep in the same bed?"
Me: "Jane, one day when you're all grown up you'll have a husband that you can snuggle up to and you'll have a bed for just the two of you"
Jane (starting to cry): "But nobody is ever going to want to marry me!"
Me (trying to stiffle the giggles): "Jane, trust me, you are going to have a whole bunch of boys lined up wanting to marry you. Then you get to sit back and pick which one you want!"
Jane (crying louder now): "But I already picked Sam and he doesn't want me!!!"
Ahh, the drama begins. Watch out Sam (neighbor boy, who would indeed make a rather fine catch) Janie has her eye on you and you'll never know what hit ya if she finally catches you.

OOHHH, the woes and worries of a 6 year old. Times have changed. And Sam would be very lucky to have such a cute wife as Jane.
at least she doesn't want to marry her brother like our five year old. good luck jane, i think sam's pretty cute too.
Senea plays the "who I'm going to marry" game, too. But her pick keeps changing.
Jane will have a ton to choose from, don't worry!
