Finding a Wife

The other day Arden and I had a cute conversation. He was playing and talking with Kenna, as he does often. (He's such a great big brother! I'm glad he has the opportunity to be the "big" brother!) Here's a close to word-for-word recount of the conversation that ensued:

Me: Arden, you're going to be a great daddy someday.

Arden: Yeah.

Me: How many kids do you want?

Arden: Fourteen.

Me: Wow! That's great! We'd better pray that you find a good wife who also wants 14 kids!

Arden (getting a sad look on his face): But, Mom, no one I know wants to marry me!

Me (trying hard not to laugh): Well, I'm sure God will bring just the right girl along at just the right time!

Arden (cheering up): Yeah!

That is too cute! Rob wanted to get married in Kindergarten, so I guess it's never to early to start thinking about these things....
