About that ring bearer thing.....

Nora and Kyla both asked about Ben's reaction to being a ring barer, so I thought I would share a story from this evening.

Me: Hey Ben, do you remember that we are going on a trip in a few days? (Since he can't really tell time "a few days" means soon but not today in his brain)

Ben: Yeah! Airplane, vroom vroom *acting like an airplane*

Me: Yup, and what the the BIGGEST rule on the airplane?

Ben: NO KICKING!

Me: Right, no kicking! (Trying to get this set in his brain now, the poor people who have to sit in front of us!)

Ben: See Nora, Chris?

Me: Yup! Let's read the book Nora got you about the wedding. (Nora got him a book about being a ring barer)

Ben: Ok *finds book, and also brings back the engagement photo that he has kept with his "treasures"*

*We get to the page that shows the Bride and Groom standing together saying their vows"

Ben: Nora? *points to bride*

Me: Yup, and who will this be? *pointing to groom*

Ben: BEN!

Me: Well no, Ben will be the boy who carries the rings. *points to the ring barer* The groom will be Chris.

Ben: I no carry rings, I this one. *points to groom*

Watch out Chris, he is pretty cute in that tux.
