When I grow up

Although he hasn't seen her in a couple months, Tyler still loves Carina the most. He was very busy thinking early one morning and began telling me what he had been thinking about.

Mama. When I grow up I am going to move in to a house very close to here so that I can live near you. Mmmhmm and I will live there with my wife, Carina, so that she can live close to her mommy and daddy too. And we will paint my house orange because that's my favorite color. Oh, and we might have to paint some of it pink too because that's Carina's favorite color. Mmmhmm.

I didn't have the heart to tell him orange and pink are not on the Home Owner Association's list of approved house colors. This verified that girls really do mature faster than boys because it was a good year ago that Carina's mom first told me Carina was talking about how she is going to marry Tyler when she grows up. At that time, I was a little shocked by the promiscuity of it all. Now I see how very cute and innocent it is and the truth is, I wouldn't mind one bit if my son lived close by me with his wife when he grows up. Not sure how his wife would feel about that though.
