DS2 (5) is planning our wedding for tomorrow

My DS2 (5) has been saying he wants to marry me for a while now. At first I though 'how sweet' and just said, 'aw that is kind and wouldn't that be lovely , but I'm already married to Dad' etc.ect..

He is ramping it up recently a bit, wants me to wear my wedding dress again, he wants to wear a James Bond Tux (he thinks this is the right sort of thing for a wedding) . Tonight he decided the wedding is tomorrow so he thinks I should sleep with him from now on and not Dad. He has decided Dad and DS1 are going to throw flowers.

I thought this was sweet to start with, but now I'm a bit worried about how to handle it without hurting his feelings and worried I have a potential oedipal thing going on in the house.

Ideas?

When dd1 was saying similar about dh we agreed not to argue about it until she is 16 as she's not legally allowed to marry younger then that.
Please pass my congratulations on to the bride and groom tomorrow though.Wink
