As a mom of boys, I've been pretty darn lucky. Yes, there are moments when I'm sure that my boys will end up killing each other because they're just so PHYSICAL with each other. For the most part, we've avoided drama (except for the obvious times when I'm the "worst mom in the whole world", usually because I've not let them watch 4 hours of Pokemon or allowed them to have McDonald's for a second lunch), which, hearing from my mom of girls friends, is a blessing (although I suppose it's just a matter of time for my share of that too). I'm just not sure if I'm ready for my boys to "like" someone.
I might have entered that world already.
Yesterday, we were at the zoo with some friends, and TJ starts walking with his friend, a girl, who will be in 3rd grade in the fall (ooooh, older women!). They were kind of by themselves, a few steps to the side of us. It was very obvious that there was something going on there. I asked him later what they were talking about, to which he immediately replies, "Nothing".
THIS is the clue. Really? A "nothing" that quickly really only means one thing: it was something. I tried to blow it off, not make a big deal of it, "were you talking about Harry Potter?" (they're both reading the books this summer) to which he immediately responded "No." Oh geez. I'm in for it now.
HE'S GOING TO BE IN SECOND GRADE. Lord help me now.
