Foreshadowing

"My children, my firmest hopes of future happiness were placed on the prospect of your union."

Yeah yeah. I know. We're not supposed to think it's weird but I still think it is. This is like an arranged marriage on steroids. I mean really, you adopt a daughter to marry your son? Weird. You want them to grow up together, in the same house, like brother/sister/cousins and not have problems? I mean it is inevitable, brothers and sisters fight. Its a fact of life and the idea of having two kids grow up like that then get married is just plain weird. Ok though, I got all the weird ranting out. Oh yeah and this could be foreshadowing because they might actually get married, who knows?
