| Lulu's embarrassed, but secretly loving the adoration, face! |
Lulu was cracking me up a few minutes ago. She was telling me about a boy at school who is in love with her! She assures me, however, that she does NOT love him back!! She said "Mom, this boy in my class follows me all around and calls me kind of adult names that I do not think are very appropriate!" (You should hear the conversation in her little voice!) My mind racing, I asked her what kind of names she was talking about? I am thinking to myself, is some Kindergartner calling my kid sexy or something?! (We say that is an "adult" word in our house.) She refused to spill the beans, so I asked her "Lulu, does he call you Sweetheart?" She nodded emphatically and then said "Gross Mom! I can't even talk about it!" Laughing I said "Does he call you Sugar and Snookums and Pumpkin Noodle?" She made a face and said "Stop Mom, he calls me all those names and I try to run away from him because I do NOT even like him!" I told her she doesn't have to like him, but not to break his heart and remember to be nice. She looked at me and threw her hand on her hip and said "Well Mom, it's just that I am a little picky, okay?!" This child cracks me up!
