To be loved, to be loved, what more could you ask for?

Late night conversations with the Boy...

Boy: “Why are Papa and Mema apart?”
Me: “Well, they decided they didn't want to live together and just wanted to be friends. So now Papa ia married to Nana.“
Boy: ”Who is Mema married to now?“
Me: ”Mema is not married to anyone. She never got remarried.“
Boy: Well, that's sad.”

After a short pause...

Boy: ”Are you going to marry Mema?“
Me: ”No. Mema is my Mommy. I'm married to your Mommy.“
Boy: ”What kind of a girl am I going to find?“
Me: ”You will find a great girl that loves you and that you can love.“
Boy: ”Where did you find Mommy?“

Oooof. How do you explain speed dating to a four-year-old? Well Boy, I guess it's kinda like musical chairs.
