Jack and I were in 5 Guys last night (burger place) and he started to
look really sad.
me: What's up Jack?
Jack: I'm thinking that thing again, about that person again.
me: Who?
Jack: You know...
me: Come here and whisper it if you want to.
Jack: It's the girl from the Radio City show.
me: Clara? Thinking about her again?
Jack: (his eyes start to fill up) Yeah... you know what I want to do to her?
me: Ummm...why don't you come over here and tell me. (Egads...)
Jack: (comes over and whispers in my ear with french fry breath) I
want to marry her.
me: Oh sweetie...(I give him a big hug and he just sags into me). You know what?
Jack: What? Sniff...
me: Someday you're gonna meet a very special girl and get married, and
I know you'll be a very sweet husband.
Jack: Yeah...
me: Are you okay?
Jack: I just really liked looking at her.
me: I know...
Now how sweet is that??
That is very sweet.
