Tonight, over dinner, we had this exchange between Dave and Allie, who is now 5… (a little history… a while back, Allie said that she was going to marry Dave and that he was her Prince Charming):

DAVE: Allie, Are you still going to marry me?
ALLIE: (pause, pause)
ME: Or are you going to marry Chase? (a boy in her class)
ALLIE: I think I have to do eenie, meenie, minie, moe. (Dave about collapsed here.)
(just a few minutes later)
DAVE: Allie, I’m stronger than Chase.
