P: I really need to eat some more so I can grow into an adult and go to a wedding.
M: Go to a wedding, or be in a wedding?
P: Be married to my sister, like you and Daddy are married...except sometimes me and Meggie say we're going to a wedding. Isn't that so fun that me and Meggie are gonna be married some time?

8/28/12
P: [After sharing with Peyton that our anniversary was the same day as his birthday and further explanation of what an anniversary was, Peyton exclaimed] Oh! Was that just so nice for you guys to have all that alone time with only Mommy and Daddy and no Peyton and Allison? Wasn't that nice?
