Marriage Understood, or How We Ended Our Weekend at the Russian River
Late weekend morning, I'm still in my pajamas, we're been talking about gardening for over an hour. Stella puts a glittery fuzzy hearts feelers headband on me.
Stella: Mama, let's get married!
Me: How do we do that?
Stella: You tell me.
...um...
Me (straightening my posture, wiggling the sparkly hearts perched on my head): OK. Stella, I love you, and I want you to be my wife.
Stella (with a rare, direct-into-the-eyes look): OK, I'll be your wife. Now go change your shirt and come work in the garden with me.
