Discussions with my morning coffee


"Mommy?"
"Yes, Love?"
"I know who I will marry!" (This has been the subject of much discussion, for various reasons.) "It will be someone from Africa."
"Really? That's cool. Why Africa?"
"Because Africa is far far away, and everything there is upside down. It's really cool. I know all about things like that."
"Well...."(I think for a moment about what to tell him about people living below the equator)
"And Mommy?"
"Yes, Love?"
"When I grow up, I will be an astronaut ninja, and I will be in outer space and I will fight the bad guys."
"Good plan, sweetie."
