Plans for the future

The girls are constantly talking about what they want to do when they grow up. Many dinner conversations turn to what they want to do when they grow up. They like to plan and dream. Sometimes they dream of what jobs they want and sometimes they dream of which sister they want to live with, how many kids they want to adopt and so on! And, by the way, we are perfectly fine with them getting married...don't think that we tell them they have to live with a sister, that is just what they want to do sometimes...depending on the day.
So yesterday, we were getting ready for dinner and A was throwing a really really big fit about nothing really. She has a gift to do that. This fit lasted a while. We just don't allow tears at our dinner table, so she could cry all she wanted in her room and come to the table when she was ready while we proceeded with dinner. She FINALLY came to the table and made her apologies through gritted teeth (so much for a sincere apology) and threw her head in her hands and pouted.
Me: What are you pouting about?
As she is whining and almost crying she says, Cause I might have problems with my kids!!!
Of course I start cracking up. Usually, A doesn't even want to have kids because she is afraid she won't remember their name or she is afraid she won't know what they are allergic to. Yes, she thinks about those things and she is only 6! I guess thinking about the problems she was giving us made her think about the problems they would give her and that just made her not want to have kids at all. Then she was pouting because she would be lonely!!!! Oh dear Lord PLEASE give this child a peace so she doesn't worry!!!
Then she got a bright idea (and her whole demeanor switches in an instant from pouty to cheerful and back again all in less than a whole second). She decided she could live with M, to which M quickly replied, Nope, sorry A I already have my life plan in place, can't live with me.

Well of course that brought the cheerful face to a pout again. So then she decided she would live with S, but that got shot down quickly by S because she decided she is getting married. So she was back to square one....either have problems with kids or be lonely. We told them that while dreaming of the future is really fun, they really did not have to know their whole plan, and frankly they COULD not know their whole plan! I pray they will continue to follow the Lord in everything they do.
