A few days ago Nathan had a little extra cuddle time with me as we watched one of our favorite shows The Biggest Loser. On the show one of the past contestants proposed to his girlfriend and Nathan asked "Mom, do you have to sit on your knee when you ask a girl to marry you?" I told him "OF COURSE!!!". He then asked me "Do you have to give a ring?" I told him if he wanted to that would be nice but he didn't have to.
We continued to watch the show for a few minutes and then our conversation went somewhere I NEVER thought it would go with my 5 year old...
N- "Mom, I was going to marry a girl but she left and I can't find her."
M-"Who was the girl?"
N-" (A girl from his school, who I have NEVER heard her name before) but she went to some other school and now I don't know where she is so I guess I won't marry her." He sighs a deep sigh...{haha}.
M-"I guess not if you can't find her."
We sat cuddling for a second and then he pipes up....
N-"I guess that leaves Shaela, Brenna, and Payton" (His tone was soooo mature.)
M-"I guess that does." (I was REALLY trying to not laugh.)
N-"My highest is then....Well Shaela doesn't work because she is going to be an adult before me and she'll be married before I am an adult so that doesn't work."
M-"I guess not." (Where the heck is this coming from?)
We cuddled some more as I sat in shock that the little bug could even process or care enough to process this marriage thing.
N-"And Payton is little and won't be an adult till after I am an adult so I can't marry her." (Little does he know that she will be the perfect age when he gets home from his mission...hehe.)
M-"Oh?" (Again not trying to LOL)
N-"So.... I guess that leaves Brenna!!" (He did a little hand up movement that put me over the edge)
M-"I guess so."
N-"She will be good because she will be an adult when I am an adult, and I am this much bigger than her. (He shows me about an inch with his fingers) So she will work Mom. I guess I will marry Brenna."
M-"Well Nathan, I think Brenna is a GREAT girl and she would be lucky to marry you." :)
The things he comes up with stun me everyday. Man I love my little love bug.
