Weddings

Last Friday - April 29, 2011 - Prince William was married to Catherine Middleton.  Before school, I had the kids watch a little of the "pomp and circumstance" because it was fascinating and a part of history.  During breakfast, I made them come into the living room to watch the "Royal Kiss" at 7:35am.  "Red" says "Mom, when you got married, did you and daddy stand like that and kiss in front of everybody?" To which I replied "No, we didn't do that."  smiling to myself because it was such an innocent question for a 4 year old who has probably never been to a wedding in real life?  I can't remember.

The next day we were at grandma's and grandpa's getting ready to go to a wedding in which my husband's sister was a bridesmaid.  I told "Red" that we were going to a wedding and she was staying with grandma and grandpa.  She asked "Are you going to wear a beautiful dress?" "Yes."  Then she asked "Are you going to wear one of those things on your head that hooks on the crown like Cinderella did?"  Clearly she thought I was the one getting married.  I laughed and said "No.  I'm not the one getting married.  I'm already married to your daddy."   She just smiled her big smile and then said "Mom, you look beautiful!"  I love hearing that.
