God help us when she is 16

I am starting a resolution early this year and am going to start sharing cute stories from the kids on the blog again even if I don't have time to post pics.  So here is the first installment- enjoy.

Our best friends here in Oklahoma have a little boy Ellie's age.  His mother and I have been promoting their arranged marriage since birth.  His dad has been deployed to Afghanistan since last January so every Sunday night they come and eat dinner at our house which has really helped move the kids "relationship" along.  Last Sunday, Ellie experience her first heart break when Chase (my friend's son) said he no longer wanted to be her boyfriend and would not be marrying her.  She broke down if full out tears- she is 4!!!!

Well the next day at school did not go any better but by Tuesday it looked like she was finally acting like a regular 4 year old and not a teenager and was content just playing with barbies.  That night as we were snuggling and talking before bedtime (which is when I find she tells me the most) Ellie tells me she is not going to marry Chase anymore because now she is going to marry Collin.  She now blushes everytime she talks about Collin- Mike and I are really going to have a work cut out for us when this one is 16.
