"When I grow up I am going to be a Rock and Roll", Julia told me confidently this morning as she pranced around with a plastic microphone.
"Really", I said with a smile.
"What are you going to be when you grow up again?" Not having given too much thought to this before, I hesitated as I couldn't help wondering if I would change anything if I truly did if the option of growing up again. Then I couldn't resist asking:" What do you think?"
After giving it some thought, she said. "Perhaps you will be a cooking person!"
Perhaps.
For one reason or another, our wedding album was out on the counter and Julia asked if she could look through it. We started out naming all my nieces who were around as old as my children are now, when Kurt and I got married. Then she was delighted to see Grandma and Grandpa... and then seemed quite surprised to see Kurt. "There's Papa?" (yes) " He is going to marry you" and then gleefully ... as if everything made sense now " Oh, he is the Handsome Prince!"
