Inquisitive Minds Want to Know

Today I was visiting with my cousin Lori's two daughters. They don't live here in Bowling Green and I don't get to see them very often. When I do see them, we have to play a big game of "catch up". Claire is 7 and Cate is 5.

This was the first thing Cate said to me:

Cate: "Are you still not married yet?"
Me: "No."
Cate: "Do you have a boyfriend then?"
Me: "No."
Cate: "Do you at least have a crush?"
Me: "No. Wait, how do you even know what a crush is anyway?"

The conversation then led into if I was a teenager and why I wasn't a teenager anymore.


Claire was interested in talking to me about my job. She knew that I was a teacher, but she didn't remember the grade I taught, so she asked me. I told her I taught Kindergarten. She looked at me for several seconds with a serious expression. Finally she said, "That really fits you."
