Well we know how she feels about it. She ran up: "LETS GET MARRIED RIGHT NOW *WAR CRY*!!" And then introduced him as her husband to some other little girl.
6 has decided to marry his classmate, a little south Korean girl. He's been studying wedding advertisements we've passed in the streets. This morning on the way to school he asked me for advice on what they should name their baby. "When I'm super super big though". Aww. Weird.
