This is an overheard conversation between my soon to be three year old granddaughter, Apraih (uh-PRAY-uh), and her five year old brother Hassani, (Ha-SAN ee) AKA "Sani". I stole it from my daughter's FB post.

Apraih: Sani, I gonna be a mommy. And I gonna have my own hub-band.

Sani: Headband? yes, ok, we can get you a headband.

A: NO! Hub-band, and my own babies.

S: Oh, husband. Yes, you will have your own, when you're older. And your own house.

A: No, we gonna live in a castle. But who gonna be my hub-band?

S: We don't know. It could be anyone. That's the great thing about weddings, they're a suprise. He might not be handsome though...

A: But Sani can you help me find who gonna be my hub-band? Please?!

S: You probably don't even know him yet. Maybe you do....

A: WHO GONNA BE MY HUB-BAND!?

S: It could be lots of people. But you have to pick the right one.

A: The right one? How 'bout my daddy?

S: NO! You can't marry him, he's mom's. Plus he'd be a really old man by then.

A: Who gonna be my hub-band? Which guy gonna be my hub-band? Who gonna be my hub-band? Which guy gonna be my hub-band? Who gonna be my hub-band? Which guy gonna be my hub-band? Who gonna be my hub-band? Which guy gonna be my hub-band? Who gonna be my hub-band?

S: APRAIH! Probably no one! 'Cause you're super annoying.

Hahahaha! Out of the mouths of babes... excellent advice for women who want to remain single for a time. Be annoying!

Much thanks to you, your daughter and especially the kids.

That's funny! Though why she wants to get married, I don't understand. ;0)

Oh, this is funny.
.... the child is almost three and starting in already??
*sigh*
Wishing you all many years first and then much joy when you all do meet her 'hub-band'...
and what a cutie brother too. : )

Hilarious and adorable! My oldest had it all planned out when she was 3. Her children's father - not her hub-band - was Da-bid - NOT David, DaBid - and her children were Jeddy, Stotch & Moomer. She is 42 now and, of course, has no children. She did get a puppy recently, though.

My grandson turns three in July... it will be interesting to see how he starts looking at his future... I can't remember that I ever had any aspirations until I got hooked on science.
