Sister Lovin'

For a long time, Aaron has said that when he grows up he wants to marry Greta.  Just recently that's changed.  He's declared Claudia to be his favorite sister and says that he wants to marry her.  Tonight we were all together in the van and he was again expressing his desire to marry Claudia.  Steve went into some details that we typically just avoid, saying that someday he will have a girl that is not his sister whom he will want to marry.  The conversation went something like this:

Steve:"...and when you are old enough, mommy and I will help you find a good wife."
Aaron: "What's a good wife?"
Steve:"Well, someone that you love, someone who you think is pretty..."
Aaron interrupts, "Well, I love Claudia and I think she's pretty!"

We all laughed heartily and the conversation about not marrying your sister was once again dropped.

  3. HA HA. How cute.

    Natalia frequently announces she's going to marry daddy, her brother, or her cousins.

    We keep going over the essentials:
    A boy...Not family/relative...Not already married...loves Jesus.

    Thankfully we have a few years before the discussion needs to go any further. :-)
