Deep Thoughts.......by Luke

My three year old often reminds me that children perceive an entirely different world than we do.

This morning, we were driving home from the gym, talking about who he shared his trains with.  After a thoughtful pause, he asked, "Mommy.  Why did you marry Daddy?"

Hmmmm....good question....I should choose my words carefully.  "I married your Daddy because I love him and I wanted to be able to live wherever he lives."  This is true. 

Luke quickly responded, "Was everybody else already married?"  

OK, clearly the idea I would choose to marry Jon over other people was not one Luke could accept. 

"No Luke, lots of people weren't married then.  I picked Daddy because I liked him the best.  And, some people never get married, and that's OK too."

"But Mommy, why did you pick the one with no hair?"
