For those who want to have little sweet girlchildren

Olivia, yesterday: When I get married I will have to have a contract with my husband so that he can't call me sweet names, like, 'honey, I'm home!'

We just heard a bang from somewhere in the house.

Bodhi: What was that?
Olivia: that was just Mum, torturing an Old Man.

I want obstreperous, subversive, difficult girlchildren who demand they be given their full space in the world and refuse to abide by soppy convention. Go Olivia!

i think a little bold is very sweet!

Well sure it is. But that ain't what I'm talking about.

"When I grow up can I marry my little brother?"

I had no idea the answer would be so difficult until I began to answer it.

Well, I'd just tell her the truth, which in my case is, sorry, he's already decided he's marrying me :)
