Little Eric and Jenny are only 10 years old, but they know they are in
love. One day they decide that they want to get married, so Eric goes to
Jenny's father to ask him for her hand.
Eric bravely walks up to him and says, 'Mr. Smith, me and Jenny are in
love and I want to ask you for her hand in marriage.''
Thinking that this was just the cutest thing, Mr. Smith replies, 'Well
Eric, you are only 10. Where will you two live?'
Without even taking a moment to think about it,? Eric replies, 'In
Jenny's room. It's bigger than mine and we can both fit there nicely.'
Still thinking this is just adorable, Mr. Smith says with a huge grin,
'Okay then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a job. You'll
need to support Jenny.'
Again, Eric instantly replies, 'Our allowance. Jenny makes five bucks a
week and I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month and that
should do us just fine.'
Mr. Smith is impressed? Eric has put so much thought into this. 'Well
Eric, it seems like you have everything figured out. I just have one
more question. What will you do if the two of you should have little
ones of your own?'
Eric just shrugs his shoulders and says, 'Well, we've been lucky so
far.'
Mr. Smith no longer thinks the little chit is adorable.
