little five year old marc bent down on one knee and held my right hand in both of his.
with a kiss to my fingers he looked directly into my eyes, and with complete certainty asked (popped?) the question....
'will you marry me, mama?'
does it get any better than that?

holy_crap that's fucking adorable. i was just telling a friend the other day i would have all kinds of babies if they never got older than five. that's the tipping point; they start going to school and start getting influenced and brainwashed by their peers.
but between the ages of zero and five, that's when the obviously amazing stuff happens.
i have a student these days, bianca, who is so adorable she breaks my heart.
she is four. she tugs at her shirt, sticks her hands up her shirt, down her pants, when she gets nervous.
she loves her violin so much already that she kisses it before she puts it away (!!!!!)
i just want to make her my cuddle_bug
pull her close
and hug out all her fidgets
shit
that child makes me hormonally retarded
's clock is ticking; LOUDLY

i said i would think about it overnight
(caught me off guard i suppose)
anyway,
this morning he told me it would never work.
truthfully i had forgotten the whole exchange.
'what won't work?'
"i can't marry you. because when i'm old enough to be married you'll be too old."
ouch.

sometimes i babysit for a family that i used to teach. not very often, but just often enough.
last friday night, mom and dad wanted to go on a date, so i stayed with the kids, because grandma who usually babysits, had to work. when dad left, he told me the youngest one probably wouldn't sleep. when bedtime rolled around, i put the older two to sleep and let little dude stay up with me. (i wasn't in the mood to lay down the law with a two year old. cause sometimes my stubbornness rivals any two year old i know)
i read him the three little pigs, voices and all, three times in a row. then he was sick of that. eyeballing the brand new keyboard the family just got, the nicest electronic reproduction of a piano the music store i work at sells, i slipped on the bench, opened the lid, and played and sang twinkle twinkle. his little voice started to sing along.
anytime i tried to play something else he would say 'i don't like that one' and about half way through my numerous renditions he looked up at me and said 'you're magic'
that photographic_memory complete with the soundtrack of that little voice has been my happy place ever_since

my 2 year old son was helping unload the dryer a few weeks ago and handed me my bra and said "here's your booby's mama"
