My Forever Girl

My girl. She pledges her love to me day after day. Often she tells me that she never wants to get married. She wants to stay home with Mommy forever and ever. Which is fine by me! I think I should try to record her saying that, so that when the teen years hit I can remind her how at one time she thought I was the best thing ever.

Somehow or other, Hannah has it in her head that we will be having a baby soon. Awhile back Tony said something about organizing the basement so that when the time came we would have the option of moving the toys down there. I guess she heard that conversation and it stuck with her.

The other day she told me she did NOT want me to have another baby because she didn't want her toys to go to the basement, she wanted them to stay in the toy room. I assured her that it would not be that way for sometime because the baby would sleep in Mommy and Daddies room at first. That eased her mind for awhile.

Soon she wondered, where would the baby go when it got bigger? Well, if it was a boy he would sleep in Alex's room and if we have a girl then she would sleep in Hannah's room. Well, it seemed that would work "Only if she doesn't snore! If she snores, she cannot sleep with me!" OK Hannah, but Mommy does NOT have a baby in her tummy so we have a long time to worry about that. To which she replied, "Are you sure? Your tummy sure is getting bigger!" Thanks sweetie;)

Soon enough her mind was reeling with questions again. Now she wanted to know if she could get a bunk bed if the baby was a girl. I told her we would wait and see. Then she told me when we take down her bed just to put it in a box and save it for her. That way when the girl gets married, we can take down the bunk bed and put her bed back up! You know, because she is never, ever getting married.

I like the way you think little girl! You can stay with Mommy and Daddy as long as you want. Maybe we could sign a legal agreement stating that you will stay away from boys all together while we are at it. Or you could just freeze time and stay my little girl forever.

Oh how sweet! Your post actually made me tear up because I wish I could make all 3 of mine be my little girls forever :)

So sweet! Love that she wants her bed packed away so when "the girl" gets married she can have it back! Taylor says she's never leaving as well, although she is okay with getting married and us building a house next door for them...lol!

How cute! I hear you on wanting to freeze time. I feel like the last four years have been a blur. And it scares me as they get older-bigger kids, bigger problems. I want to always be the hero in Preston's eyes.

Too cute! You have to love that age! They say the funniest things and the wheels in their heads are constantly turning! I wish I could freeze time too sometimes! We are going to miss these days! :)

So priceless. Hannah is too cute ... and so smart to come up with all of that reasoning :0) yes, definately record her saying she is never leaving. I remember somewhere around 10 or 11 years packing my stuff in grocery bags because I was mad at my parents, and I was moving out :0)

That is so sweet!! Hannah is adorable! You should definitely get that on video! I find myself hoping that time will freeze, or at least slow down, fairly often!
