Divorce

Car ride conversation...
Wm: Bob's parents are divorced.  He stays half the time with his mom and half the time with his dad.
Me: Is he sad about it or does he like changing houses?
Wm: He never really talks about it.  If you and Daddy got a divorce I would cry for the rest of my life. But I know that would never happen.
Me: That's right, bud.  You never have to worry about that.  Ever.
Wm: I know.  That's what I just said.  How do you get divorced, anyway?  Do you just say, "I divorce you," then go buy a new house?
Me: No, it's a bit more complicated than that. You have to go to court and talk to a judge who makes it official.
Wm: OH.  Wow. Do you have to do that if you are not married?
Me: No, if you're just dating, you can just say, "we are breaking up," and that's it.  I was dating another boy when I met Daddy, but I broke up with him right after I met Daddy because I knew Daddy was the man I was going to marry as soon as I met him.
Wm: You dated another boy?
Me: Yep.
Wm: Hm.  Was he nice?
Me: Yeah, really nice.
Wm: Not as nice as Daddy.
Me: No, Daddy is the nicest.  That's why I married him.
Wm: I bet Daddy is a MILLION times nicer.
Me: Let's not get carried away.
