Love and Marriage

8 year old boy: "Mrs. Clamforest, do you remember in 2nd grade when I asked you to marry me?"
Me: "Yep."
Boy: "Well, I was wondering if you had time to think about it at all?"
Me: "Ummm...."
Boy: "Because, do you remember you told me, 'I will think about it,' and I just wondered if you did yet..."

After I got done laughing a little bit and being surprised, I told him, "If I'm not married in 20 years down the road, maybe we can talk at that point."

I think that was a good enough response for him, because he dropped it and ran off to play a xylophone with the rest of his class. ;)
