My 6-year old nephew runs over to me and says: "Why don't you get married, so, you will not be alone and will have a family like ours?"
Completely taken aback with this question, I asked: "Why do you want me to be married?"
He responds without a second of hesitation: "So, I will have cousins to play with".

How does one respond to something like this. I had absolutely no idea where this question came to his mind. So, I told my sister that her insightful 6-yr old wanted me to be married. She laughed and told me what transpired between the two of them, before he ran over to pose the question.

(Setting: My sister and her family just moved from an apartment to a large and lovely single family house. She and my nephew were sitting in the living room, while I was in the kitchen)

Nephew: "Ma, I am scared"
Sister: "Scared? What has scared you?"
Nephew: "This is such a large house and and I am all alone"
Sister (trying to explain that he is not all alone but we are all together in the house with Ma, father, little brother): "You are not all alone, but we are all live in this house, and we can see each other in, even if we are in different rooms."
Nephew: "How many rooms do we have?"
Sister: "Lets count how many rooms we have, shall we?"
My nephew and sister, count the number of rooms and come to some random number 7-8 rooms. To which my nephew continues
Nephew: "How many rooms does aunty (aunty = me) have?"
Sister: "She also have 6-7 rooms"
Nephew: "Who lives with her?"
Sister: "She lives all alone"
Nephew: "All alone?! She does not see anyone in another room?"
Sister: "Yes, she stay in her home, with no one else."
Nephew: "Why doesn't she get married, so she can see someone else in another room?"
Sister: "Why don't you ask her?"
Nephew: "No, you ask her"
Sister: "No, you have the question, you ask her."

At this point (my sister reported to me), my nephew walked out of the living room, and into the connecting dinning room, wandered around in circles for a few mins and then dissappeared. This was the point where he came upto me asking me to get married.
