A Dinner Conversation

Alex: Mom, could they make you and Dad get divorced?
Me: No, I don't think so, could who make us get divorced?
Alex: Them! Like if Jason and I were really really bad and blew up the entire neighborhood, could they make you get divorced?
Me: No, we'd be in big trouble, but we could stay married.
Alex: Oh, OK.
Me: Why? Do you want us to get divorced? (Thinking maybe he'd found a new improved Mom somewhere.)
Alex: No, I think you & Dad are good together.

PS. I'm blogging about the books I've read this year on my long neglected personal blog.
