tinktronik Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Over the last month or so, My three boys have started talking about how I should marry my s/o . There very young , 4,5,7. I'm not quite sure where the idea has come from . My two youngest started the phaze where they decided they were going to marry me and all of a sudden it's "no Mom ,I don't want you to marry me, I want you to marry ____ ". My boys love my s/o and have known him forever it seems to them. Has anyone else had their kids begin campaigning for marrige? To be honest , I most likely will be ith my s/o for a very very long time as things usually work with us and the years just float by with him. Link to post Share on other sites
penkitten Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 yes. my children are 12, 9, 8 and 2 now. last year right before my fiance proposed, my oldest announced that he wouldnt mind if we got married. the second child asked my fiance if he was going to marry me. the thrid child asked if she could be in the wedding. the baby learned the word wedding. when he proposed, he took the kids into another room and asked if they were sure they would be ok with it. they all came out and circled me, i was eating dinner still. he got on his knees and the kids all shouted "will you marry him? just say yes momma" and he put the ring on my finger and they surronded the ring in awe. children want to be happy and they want their mommas happy. if this guy truely makes you happy, they know it. they know its good for you. they also love him and want him around everyday to start declaring and announcing that its a ok with them. you have some good children. they arent jealous and they dont feel left out. which means you are a good momma, and you really take the time out for them. be proud!

Author tinktronik Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 Thankyou , penkitten , That by the way was a very good proposal from your H . My kids really do love my s/o , and he loves them too. We both are the types that have no problem with needing a lot of time alone , as long as our family "unit" is around and this includes the kids , so no, they don't feel left out.

penkitten Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 thats why your kids love him so much. because he isnt "taking" momma away. hes adding to the family, so of course they want him around. they dont want you to be left without a husband either. they feel as if they should campaign a little to get the process going. they know he will ask after they help him a little. and these kids want wedding cake. they really do, because its good. so when its really time to plan a wedding, let them help you pick the cake.

How cute! when he proposed, he took the kids into another room and asked if they were sure they would be ok with it. they all came out and circled me, i was eating dinner still. he got on his knees and the kids all shouted "will you marry him? just say yes momma" and he put the ring on my finger and they surronded the ring in awe. children want to be happy and they want their mommas happy. if this guy truely makes you happy, they know it. they know its good for you. they also love him and want him around everyday to start declaring and announcing that its a ok with them. you have some good children. they arent jealous and they dont feel left out. which means you are a good momma, and you really take the time out for them. be proud! Aww Pen, that is the cutest and sweetest story!!! Trink, you are very blessed to have such good children!! I would listen to them if I were you. Children seem to have amazing intuition. And when they don't like someone, they don't like them, end of story! I've heard so many stories of families having a hard time meshing because the kids didn't like each other or the kids didn't like the other spouse... for ex. my SO's daughter and step daughter can't stand their new step dad. It's sad too becaues I think their mother was so selfish it didn't matter in the least if they liked him or not. If for some reason my son had a problem w/my SO, I would leave him. Thankfully, the opposite is the case. It sounds like you guys could be a wonderful family!! Link to post Share on other sites

Author tinktronik Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share Posted June 9, 2006 I'm considering it , ofcourse he would have to ask first .I don't think we would do a legal ceremony but instead a private religious one. Link to post Share on other sites
