Wisdom from a 3 year old

As we were walking to the car today, Addysen decided to declare that she was breaking up with me. I don't know where in the world she heard this line, but she told me "I'm breaking up with you mommy".
Okay, so does this mean we aren't married anymore, Addy?
(Addy always wants to "marry me", which consists of us dancing in circles and her singing a sweet little song.)
Addysen's follow up to my question went something like this:
"Ya know, when boys gets married, they get old!"
HA!
Don't ask me how that whole conversation fits together. The ramblings of a little one are a mystery to me; their little minds are so random yet so entertaining.
You can't help but laugh at Addysen's insight.

Additionally, Addysen is learning to master the art of outwitting others.
As we were running errands the other day, I gently reminded Addy to try not to drink so much of her water as, naturally, drinking makes you have to use the potty.
Me: "You know, some stores don't have potties for us to use."
Addy: "Well, (matter-of-factly!) some stores DO!"
Sure enough, just as we walked into Best Buy, Addysen told me she had to go potty. And guess what, this store HAD a potty for us to use. A blessing in that there were no accidents, yet the lesson was lost.
PS- We were at Best Buy to drop off my 5 month old camera, which decide to break on our Mammoth trip. I'm not a huge fan of being without my camera. Thankfully, my MIL and mom have let me borrow theirs for key moments like vacations and birthdays.
