Lucas: Daddy, why do you have a ring on your finger?
Christy: (Answering for Josh who was on his phone) That's his wedding ring. He got it when he married mommy. It means he belongs to me. (snickering under her breath).
Lucas: I'm gonna get married mommy.
Christy: Oh yeah? Who are you going to marry?
Lucas: (immediately) Alex.
Christy: Alex, your brother? Uh...that's not a good plan buddy.
Lucas: Why mommy?
Christy: Well, first of all--he's your brother, and that is called incest. Can you say incest?
Lucas: Infest?
Christy: We don't want to perpetuate the Arkansas backwoods hick stereotype by encouraging incest.
Lucas: HUH? What mommy?
Christy: Anyway--also, it's probably best if you marry a girl. Most boys marry girls. (Note:I am not opposed to my children marrying WHOEVER they fall in love with--boy or girl. But this just didn't seem like the right time to have the birds and the birds discussion). What girl would you like to marry?
Lucas: Umm....Steele?? I think Steele mommy.
Christy: (grinning) Well that would be fine.
Lucas: No, mommy. Not just Steele. I want to marry Steele's mommy, too.
Christy: Really? She's already married. Steele's daddy might not like having to share her.
Lucas: That's okay.
Christy: What makes you want to marry Steele's mother?
Lucas: I like her. She doesn't put me in time out.

Who knew he had such incestuous-bigamous-cheating-Mrs. Robinson tendencies lurking under that cute facade? The BM gals better watch out...Lucas is on the prowl.

Cute story. Be sure to save it for him to read when he is older!

AWESOME!!!! We couldn't stop laughing at this one! And who knows, if Disco can't get rid of our rat problem I might just take Luc up on his offer . . .

No really, that was too cute! A great story to share at Luc's wedding. Even if he doesn't fall madly in love with big sis.
