Eileen patted Bryan’s arm and said to Gabriela, “He’s your dad, and he’s my husband. Someday, you’ll have your own husband.”

Gabriela blinked a few times, seemingly processing Eileen’s words. She trotted back, patted Bryan on the shoulder, and announced to Eileen, “Let’s switch. He can be your dad and my husband!”
