24

“Mom, how old were you when you married Daddy?” Brennan asks as I hug him goodnight.

“I was 24.” I reply.

“24! Wow, that’s old.”

Sigh. Yes, practically ancient.

“And that was how old you were when you first kissed Daddy? 24?”

I only wish I hadn’t burst out laughing just so I could have solemnly told him, yes. Yes, 24 is a perfect age for you to hit before you start kissing girls. But my laughter may have ruined it. Damn it. Another practically perfect parenting moment ruined by my lack of a poker face.
