Marriage

During a discussion at school about marriage Ella said that she was going to get married but she didn't know who to yet. Harper said she was not going to get married but just stay sisters forever. Beatrix and Lily concurred.   


When Mrs Blakeney asked them where they would live, however, they had differing opinions - Harper wanted her own house but lily wanted to live at home. Mrs B suggested one made of straw, one made of sticks and one made of brick.


In a subsequent interchange with Ella, Ella said that she would have to marry a man. Harper said that you don't have you, you could marry a girl. Let's hope parliament catches up with her.
