First Love

I picked Griffin up from school this week and was greeted with a serious announcement from our G.

"Mommy, today I met a girl. And I really, really like her!"

Griffin shared this with me in a serious tone laced with excitement. He had found someone special and he wasn't afraid to let everyone know about it.

My baby has his first crush.

I tried to stay calm, but also I need some more info. I need to scope out this little pre-K crush a bit. Is she good enough for my G? My sweet, green eyed boy?

"Wow, Griffin. That's great you met a new friend. What does your new friend look like?"

He considered for a moment and then said, "She sort of has hair like yours Mommy. It's long and goes on forever. And I know that if I touched it, it would be so very soft."

Oh, sweet boy. My baby has it bad.
