5 Going on 16!

Emma told us the other night that she loves her friend in her kindergarten class named Zachary.  She then informed us that she is going to marry him.  


WHAT!!


I reminded her that she told us she had previously decided to marry daddy.  She flippantly declared that she was not going to marry daddy any more.  I guess Daniel has been replaced!


Than, last night, I asked her how her friend Zachary was.  She told us that he was not her friend any more and that now Roger was her friend.  I asked her if her seating arrangement had been changed so that she was no longer sitting by Zachary and was now sitting by Roger instead.  She told me that it had not changed so I asked why Roger was suddenly her friend.  She responded, "Because he carries my binder for me."  Daniel replied with, "Just remember you can't date until you're 16."  I suddenly got this image of the old movies showing the high school boys carrying the books of the girl they like in an attempt to win their favor.  It was so cute, but I must admit that I keep thinking, "SHE IS NOT OLD ENOUGH FOR THIS!"  


It looks like she is not going to follow in the footsteps of her mother in this aspect of her life, so that's good news!
