Last weekend while at home with my family, my cousin's 7 year old daughter made me and everybody else laugh. She obviously had been hearing since Christmas something being discussed pertaining to me and marriage. I was driving her and her 3 yr old sister to my parent's home and she says to me.....
So Aunt Beautifully Complex are you married yet ?
I chuckled and say....
No Alexandra, I am not married yet, I am engaged.
She sits quiet for a few seconds and then asks.......
What exactly is engaged ?
I think for a moment how to best break it down for her and say....
OK, you see this ring on my finger everyone has been looking at ? Well Mr. Mixologist gave it to me and it means that he intends to marry me.
She pauses and then says without skipping a beat...
Oh OK I get it, I know why he did that. He did that so nobody else could pick you right ?
I could not stop laughing ! LOL I told her yes, that is true, this ring insures that nobody else can pick me. When we arrived, the house was full of family members and of course I repeated the conversation. Everybody thought it was pretty funny and Alex was smiling while everyone was laughing. I love little kids and the way they see the world.
Happy Friday ! Enjoy yourself this weekend.
