Caed Speaks Out

A couple days ago, C witnessed a rare occurrence--mom attempting to put on make-up--and asked, “Why are you trying to look good, mom?” I tried not to read into his tone that he meant to imply it was a lost cause.

Then this morning, after a round of “whys” regarding my wedding ring, he announced that he had married all of his cousins when he went to Michigan. I guess my explanation about “getting married” didn’t quite sink in. But even after a second attempt at defining marriage in three year old terms, C was emphatic that he had married his cousins. Although, to his credit, he had cut back his list to just include Micah and Emily. Ahh, problematic on soo many levels, even in Massachusetts.
