Jonah (age 5): Ella, I don’t want you to marry a bum.
Ella (age 9 months):
Jonah: Remember, don’t marry a bum! Okay? And you have to watch out, because sometimes a guy will pretend he’s NOT a bum, when really he is. And then you find out after the wedding! So DON’T marry a bum. Okay?
Ella:

hahahaha thats awesome. She listens so well to her big brother these days.
That is adorable. What a smart big brother.
Oh, I have been looking forward to Ella’s first conversation in your blog! And I love Jonah’s advice. Brothers are especially useful when it comes to advice.
Hey–it’s never too early to start with the brotherly advice. Tell Jonah that we don’t want HIM to marry a shrew.
I’m sure she soaked in EVERY word
Good thing Ella is such a good listener! Jonah gives some good advice!
