The Temple-I'm Going There Someday...


I took Ethan grocery shopping with me tonight and we had the cutest little conversation on the way home. Out of the blue he asked me why I got married? I said, "Because I was in love with Daddy." Then he asked me when he was going to get married. I told him that probably when he got home from his mission. Then he said, "Like when you got home from your mission and Daddy got home from his mission?" I said, "Yep." Then Ethan said, "I'm going to get married in the bootiful temple, the temple that is by Nana's house!" I said, "That would be a great place to get married, the Bountiful Temple IS very pretty." Then he asked me what temple I was married in. I told him the one in Salt Lake. Then... (here's the cute part) Ethan says, "Mom, where is Makinley going to get married?" (Makinley is the cute little neighbor girl who Ethan loves to play with.) I said, "I don't know?" And then he said, "Because I love Makinley, I could take her to the temple." Sweet story, huh? I swear that little guy says the most adorable things!

That is a cute story! I love when my boys have those little conversations with me..makes my heart melt, but then makes me anxious over the idea of them leaving for missions and getting married..LOL!

This is such a cute story--so Ethan. What will you do when he gets home from his mission and a week later announces he's getting married? Been there done that.
