We've been through this before


Some happy news got Ava and I talking about marriage today. She has made it clear in the past that she plans to marry Dan. But this afternoon as we chatted over marshmallows and chocolate chips, our conversation went like this:

Ava: Mom, someday when I'm big like you, can I get married?

Me: Of course!

Ava: But I can't marry dad?

Me: Well, no because he's already married to me


She paused for a moment to think and then came back with this compromise,


"Well, how bout Grandpa?"

What a compliment! If she had gotten to me a little earlier it could have been great--but I guess that wasn't really physically possible, huh. Love Grandpa Max.

Maybe the other Grandpa???
