Lucas on Marriage

We have some great conversations with Lucas and last week was no exception. He is very detail oriented and can remember buttons, colors, hairstyles, jewelry, who, what, when, where and why for most of the memories he has. It's pretty amazing to hear what he notices. Last week we were talking to him about girlfriends and his future wife. He's 6 so you don't want to wait too much longer to have that conversation. :) He told us that he wanted to wait on choosing a wife because he wanted to pick the right one. Daddy and I told him that was a great idea. Apparently, Lucas doesn't remember that he signed a contract in September saying that he would not date any girls until he was 30. It's an official document with witnesses and everything. It will hold up in court, right? Anyway, later when he was going to the store with me we talked about his future wife. He has some very specific qualities in mind.

Here is what he wants...
1) A wife who is a little bit shorter than him because the wife is ALWAYS shorter than the husband.
2) A wife who has blonde hair like Lucas.
3) A wife who has eyes that "change color" AKA Hazel eyes.
4) A wife who has hair like mine, kinda straight and not curly. (His words)
5) A wife who is funny and makes him laugh, but not as silly as me. (His words)
6) A wife who knows how to wear makeup. He said specifically that he doesn't want a wife who wears a lot of makeup so you can see the red cheeks on her face (rouge). He doesn't want to see the makeup. Funny huh?
7) A wife who is smart.
8) A wife who talks kindly to him and loves him.

So, those are the requirements for his future wife....
