Over two years ago, Gabe and his friend, Evelyn, were playing together and pretending to be married (Evelyn's idea). The other day, Evelyn came home from school with the following drawing, which her mother emailed me:
The picture reads, "When I grow up I want to be a Mommy because I want to marry my friend Gabe." Gah! How sweet is that? And according to Evelyn's mom, Evelyn is holding a baby in her left hand.
When I told Gabe about Evelyn's drawing, this is how the conversation went:
Gabe: but I'm married to you. I can't marry Evelyn. I think I'll marry Auntie Auntie.
Me: Okay. Do you know who else wants to marry you?
Gabe: Who?
Me: Your friend, Will. And your friend, Joseph.
Gabe: I want to marry Joseph and I want to marry all of those people. I guess I'll marry all of them, then.
