Wedded Bliss

We've been having a fantastic time in Florida this week.  I have lots to tell and so many fun photos, but they'll have to wait until we get home.  But, I wanted to get this little story down from Vivien before I forget it.  We were on the beach today, the girls and Milo were catching crabs and I was being the photographer.  After a while, I sat down to look at the pics on the display and Vivien walked over to me. She sat down to eat some blueberries, and was deep in thought. I snapped a few pictures of her, and then we started to chat. Here was our conversation:

V: Remember that you got married, Mum?

H: Yes, I do remember.

V: Was I there?

H: Nope - not yet.  

V: Where was I?

H: You were still in Heaven.

V: Oh yeah.  I remember!  I had lots of friends there.

H: I bet that you did.

V: Avery was my best friend there.  And Heavenly Father is really nice.

H: I'm so glad, Vivs.

V: I can't wait to get bigger.

H: Why, baby?

V: So that I can marry Daddy, too.

H: Well, you can get married when you're bigger, but not to Daddy.

V: WHY NOT?? (sad)

H: Because he's your Daddy - and he's already married.

V: Oh yeah - to you, right Mum?

H: Yup, to me.  But, he'll be a grandpa for your babies!

V: (astonished!) Daddy will be my GRANDPA??

H: No - just to your babies.  He'll always be your daddy.

V: And he'll always be your husband?

H: Yes - he'll always be my husband.

V: I'm glad.

H: Me, too.

Then, she shot me the cutest crinkle nosed smile, and ran off to be with her sisters again. . . *sigh*.
