Forever

"Mom, which way is China?"
"Um...east. No, you'd probably go west from here. But you'd have to fly in an airplane."
"Maybe I'll move there."
(pause)
"You'd be really far away. But I'm sure you'd make some new friends."
"Oh.... I'm not going to move to China. Can I live with you forever?"
"Yes!"
"I'm not ever going to get married. No. Never. I'm just going to live with you."
"Maybe you'll get tired of me and say, 'Mommy, get outta this house.'?"
"I would never say that. I just like you too much."
(big smiles)
