The other day I was in the car with Lanie and she started spouting off all the reasons she didn't want to ever, ever leave our house. I stopped the car and asked her to repeat it while I got my phone out. Her responses and my list of questions turned into a list of who she would marry. She's a bit fuzzy on why she shouldn't marry family members. I am kicking myself that I didn't ask her if she was going to college first. I've got some girl power in me.
These aren't new themes; I have posted conversations like this with Lanie before, but since I caught this one on tape, I thought I'd post it again. It may be just a video for those grandparents hundreds of miles away to love, but I thought it was endearing. Oh, and spoiler alert - Kendra, if you are reading this, tell Bryant that "Ella's dad" is on Lanie's short list.
I love conversations with little ones! Keep up the good writing Jen. Love reading your words.
