I left at 7:55 a.m. this morning to be at VBS by 8:30. I figured I might even have time to stop by for a sweet tea from Sonic. Not so much. I completely forgot that I would be driving through rush hour, since I'm almost never on the Interstate at that time on a weekday. It took me almost 40 minutes to get to church.

But during those 40 minutes I was witness to some pretty interesting conversations between my son and daughter.

It started when Bailey said, "Hey, Mom, did you know that nobody wants to marry me? Jon Mason doesn't want to marry me and Landon doesn't want to marry me."

Bradley very sweetly pipes in, "Bailey, I guarantee you that someone will want to marry you. I know someone will want to marry me. In fact, I don't want to say for sure, but I'm pretty sure I know who that person will be."

"Who, Bradley?"

"Well, like I said, I can't say for sure."

"Is it McKenzie?"

"Well, maybe. But she told me she likes somebody else at school." Then he called up to me, "Hey, Mom, have you heard about Wade?"

I said, "Yes, I've heard about Wade."

"McKenzie said she likes him."

"Really? Did that hurt your feelings?"

"No. I don't care. I know there'll be somebody else out there that wants to marry me."

"Well, I think that's very mature of you. Are there any girls at school that you like?"

"Nah. I'm not really all that big on girls."

A few minutes later Bailey offered, "Well, Bradley, maybe we can get married."

"Bailey! People are not allowed to be related in more than one way. You can not be brother and sister and also married."

Sadley, that might disappoint some folks to know.
