A Marriage Proposal



PDD-Nos Memoirs
A few weeks ago, the kids and I went to the mall. We were at Hollister's when we ran into The Entrepreneur's best friend (she happens to be a girl). The girl is 13 and has two sisters and a brother. Her youngest sister is about the same age as my youngest (7). She's a pretty little girl with long blonde hair. She's a cross between Dakota Fanning and Emily Osment. While we were waiting on the line, the teens were talking and the youngest sister was sitting on an oversized chair. I watched as The Little One started slowly getting closer and closer to her. Every time I glanced over, he was even closer.

It didn't take him long to be so close to the chair, he was leaning on it. I watched as he put his hands together under his chin as if he was praying. I found it odd, so I watched intently. He leaned over and said, "You are so beautiful." I was shocked, but nothing compared to his next line. I was floored when, "Would you marry me?" came out of his mouth.

As I told his Dad, he proudly laughed and said, "That's my son!"

Thrilling. My son is PePe Le Peu.
