Kids say the darndest things No. 1

The joys of having a little one roaming around the house, with her cute little child comments. Let me explain...

Sunday after church I was lying on the bed admiring my sparkling ring in the afternoon sunshine. When in walks my 7 year old munchkin sister. She plops down beside me and intently stares at me till I decide to pull my eyes away from my sparkles to look at her. 
She asks "Aerika? Why do you always wear that ring Curt gave you?" 
I answered "Well it's my engagement ring it means we're getting married."
Munchkin: "I already knew you were getting married but tell me why you always wear that ring."
Me: "It tells everyone that I am getting married and that I am off limits and I won't date anyone else. It is a symbol of Curt's love for me."
Munchkin: "But you don't wear it when you're at work..."
Me: "No, I don't because I don't want anything to happen to it or for it to get dirty."
Munchkin: with apparent concern on her face  "Well does your boss know you're getting married"
Me: "I am the boss. But I work with another boy in the morning."
Munchkin: *gasps* "Does he know you're getting married?" 
Me: "Yes he does and he has a girlfriend so its ok."
Munchkin: "What about the owner? Does he know you're getting married?"
Me: "Yes he does and he is married too."
Munchkin: obviously satisfied leans back on me "Oh good because Curt would be very sad if anyone didn't know he loved you and you were engaged and getting married in the temple and they tried to take you. But that won't happen." 

She smiles,  pats my arm, hugs me and leaves my room.

Out of the mouths of babes. I love my little munchkin sister. She says the funniest things and I am so glad that she is here and chose to be in our family never a dull moment with her around ;) I love her

Mimi asked why Ali walked her boyfriend out to his car whenever he left. I said, "She's saying good-bye to him." She said, "Doesn't he know his own way to his car?" Hasn't figured it out yet.
