A 3-year-old's take on marriage

Day 1
Janelle: "Daddy, are you married?"
Royston: "Yes of course I'm married! I'm married to your mummy."
*look of utter surprise on Janelle's face*
Janelle smiles in great amusement: "You're married to my mummy?!?"

Janelle: "Mummy, are you married also?"
Me: "Of course I am. I'm married to your daddy, that's how we had you and mei-mei."
Janelle smiles in great amusement, obviously not fully understanding this thing about marriage.

Day 2
Janelle: "Daddy, mummy, I want to get married!!"
Royston: "You're too young to get married."
Me: "Who do you want to marry?"
Janelle thinks for a while, then proudly proclaims: "My sister!!"

Day 3
We let Janelle watch part of our church wedding video and she thoroughly enjoyed it!

Day 4
Janelle *sadly*: "But I'm not at your wedding. Janine also not at your wedding. Joie and Clarice also not there."
Me: "Oh darling, but that's because you were all not born yet, so you couldn't be at our wedding."

  4. This is so funny!!! This conversation carried on for 4 days... so cute! When she's older I wonder if she said I wanna marry Ian (take for example :P)... what would ur reaction would be??! kekekek... Anyway, I noted Janelle only mentioned the girl-friends names. Mmmzz.. I hope the little baby boys in church will grow up fast, otherwise Ian will be an outcast!!!

  5. Haha yah i think she mentioned only the girls because Lem & Alice were at our wedding too, so she linked Joie & Clarice to them - know what i mean? Yeah but what she said was really funny!
