For all you Royal Watchers out there who might have risen early to watch the Royal Wedding today, you might like this story. And for all of you JJ followers out there who know of his desire to be king because he 'figures that is the way to have the most money', you too may like this story:
I had this conversation with the boys this morning at the bus stop (after watching the Royal Wedding, which I enjoyed so much - but they wanted me to change when they awoke, just as the Prince and the Princess were being escorted into their carriage so they could watch Arthur of all things!)
Minnie: "JJ, I thought of you and how you want to be king while I was watching the royal wedding this morning and how for you to become king, you will have to marry a princess in line to the throne. So, here is what I am thinking - lets hope that William and Kate have a baby girl really soon. Then you could go to college in England, catch her eye, marry her and become her king."
JJ: "Well, I don't want to go to college in England."
Minnie: "Well, maybe their daughter will come to college in the United States.'
JJ: "But I don't want to marry their daughter."
Minnie: "Well, then I do not know how else you can become a king."
JJ: "I have decided I do not want to become a king. I want to marry 'EG'(a family friend) and be just like you"
Minnie: "What do you mean, just like me?"
JJ: "Just a regular person with not very much money, but happy. With two kids, just like you and dad and I think 'EG' will be a good wife.
Minnie: "I think your plan is better than mine!"
And another JJ anecdote for good measure to show he has a good head on his shoulders:
I picked him up from school last week and he was angry at what is his on and off again 'best friend' who we shall call Ms. I for short. When I asked him why, he said..."Because sometimes she holds my hand way too tight!"
I could not argue with that reasoning either!
