Ladies Man

Last week, a friend emailed to tell me that Robert told her daughter that he wanted to marry her (they are in the same kindergarten class).  Very cute, I know. 

However, I didn't have the heart to tell her that it is just his line he uses on all the girls.  He tells them what they want to hear, and apparently 5 year old girls want a proposal.  Robert has agreed to marry most of the little girls in our neighborhood and a handful of other girls in his class.

The first time this happened, he was about 3 1/2 yrs old.  He was over at his friend Tess's house for dinner.

ROBERT:  Tess, I'm going to marry you one day

TESS:  Ummmmmmm

ROBERT:  We're going to get married!

TESS:  Well, I'm not sure...

ROBERT:  Yes, we are!

TESS:  I'm not sure if you're the one.

ROBERT (getting agitated):  Yes, Tess, we will get married and you are going to have a baby in your belly!


He has since moved on to wanting to marry Tess's older sister.  I can tell we're going to have a lot of problems when Robert is old enough to date.
