Ezra has kids

Ezra has a vivid imagination. He has wanted to marry a little girl in our church since March, and he still thinks she would be the best wife. She is just now 9 months old. He is adorable with her- tender and doting. It's very sweet.
He and Annelise have imaginary children. Sometimes they have three kids, sometimes 17 and occasionally 93. "That's a lot of kids!" he says. He tells me all sorts of stories about his kids. His kids tell him things or do things. One time I overheard him being quite bossy (I thought he was talking to Silas) and I scolded him for it. His retort was, "It's not being bossy if you're talking to your kids." He often says things like, "When I was sleeping, my kids were having bad behaviour.", or "One of my kids told me__________."
They live in a house underwater at Disneyland. They take a double decker water airplane to get home.
When I ask him what his kids are going to be named he usually chooses some sort of inanimate object, like a hammer and names his child after that. Occasionally, he names them sounds like "hoo, hee, baa, coo and sa".
Last week he was telling me his kids have an Uncle Henry. We don't even know any Henry's so I'm not sure where that name came from but regardless, it's humorous. I can't remember the whole story about why uncle Henry originally came up but he's mentioned him a few times now.
He also has many future ambitions. He wants to be a Daddy when he is a man. And for his other job, he has said he wants to be either a farmer, a coffee perker, a doctor, a cowboy, a soldier and many others I am forgetting. My favorite occupation he has come up with is the driver/captain of an amphibious vehicle. Sometimes that's his personal family car- for all his kids you know. And Annelise has to sit in the back, with all the kids, haha.
He also is MOST excited for his birthday because he will be closer to being a man. Not for the cake or presents or party or balloons. He is most looking forward to growing up. Isn't he a little young to be looking this far ahead?
