Zoe has been asking to have a wedding for the past two days. So, after supper tonight we had a wedding. She married Ace but we were quick to point out we were pretending. I don’t think Ace realized that he was getting married anyways. I was a witness (in the dress I’m wearing to my 10 year reunion) and Mark was the officiant. After the wedding we got to dance (always a treat in our house)! Before we started to dance, Zoe told me that she wanted to get married so she could have a baby (thank goodness she has this whole thing in order). She said that when mommies have babies they have to go to bed (“Like you do mom?!”). “I’m Sleepy Bear’s mom,” she told me as we were discussing babies. (Side note: Sleepy Bear is her cuddly she’s had since she was about 6 months old)

So tonight, I’m tucking her in bed and she said that the baby wasn’t ready to come out that she had “to wait a long, long, long time.” I asked her if she wanted another baby brother or sister and she said that she wanted to have 7 babies…well, she couldn’t make up her mind between 7 and 1 but finally settled on 7. “I’m going to be a mommy and Ace is going to be a daddy,” she announced. Then we had to talk about how were pretending because Ace was her brother, etc! We also discussed having another baby brother and sister and that she needed to pray to God (and go to sleep) for that to happen!

Just had to share that cute story about my MIT (Mommy in Training), Zoe.
