Last Monday, Lucy came home from school and announced, "I'm not in love with Anwar anymore."
Me: "I never knew you were in love with Anwar. What does it mean, not to be in love with him?"
Her: "It means I'm in love with Peter."
Me: "And.."
Her: "He's nice and funny, so he's who I can marry him and have a baby with and then I can become a mom and a teacher. My child, you know, whoever I have, will be in the same school where I teach. And that's my life that will happen."
Me: "Well what if Peter isn't interested in this big life plan of yours?"
She paused thoughtfully. Then: "Well aren't the girls in charge of the marrying? It will happen."
I cracked up. Then, a few minutes later, she shared: "Hey Mom, when I told Anwar that I wasn't in love with him, he said, 'phew!'"
Yeah, I'll bet!
