Planning Ahead

  We went to Chili's with the Nelsons, after the Singing. I had some very amusing conversations with Hannah Mae. 
 Hannah: "When I grow up, I'm going to do things the right way and get married." 
Me: "Ah." 
Hannah: "I'll probably be a Christian before I get married." 
Me: "That's a good idea."
Hannah: "I'll have two kids. I'm gonna name one Christian." Suddenly, seized with a sense of all things virtuous, she begins fiercely scribbling over the girl on the front page (who was wearing a shirt that didn't quite meet her pants), declaring, "This is inappropriate. I'm gonna color all over all the inappropriate ones."
Me: "I like the way you think, Hannah!"

  1. Also from Hannah: "You be the mom, and I'll be the kid, and we don't know them over there." (Our parents.) She switched to her make-believe voice and tugged on my sleeve.

    "Look, Mommy," pointing at the table our parents were sitting at, "What a cute couple!"

    Sarah promptly faints.
