Marriage Prospects

From a conversation as we got ready for bed tonight:

Elizabeth: "I've almost grown out of these footie pajamas. One more year and they'll be too small. Do they make footie pajamas for grown-ups?"

Me: "Yes."

Elizabeth: "Good. I'm going to wear footie pajamas when I'm a grown-up, then."

Me: "When will you be a grown-up?"

Elizabeth: "When I get married." [said in a tone that implied "duh!"]

Me: "How old will you be when you get married?"

Elizabeth: "Maybe 25."

Me: "That's a good age. Do you know who you'll marry?"

Elizabeth: "Probably Jordan." [her 8-year-old cousin]

Me: "Why Jordan?"

Elizabeth, very seriously: "Because he's the best man I know."
