k-i-s-s-i-n-g


So it's here...the first official girlfriend. As a mom of boys I knew this day was coming. I knew one day I'd have to let my boys go and here it sits like a wounded solider. Another girl has stolen his heart and mommy won't be marrying her son anymore. It was fun while it lasted. Tristan came home with a dedicated story all to him...from a girl. His eyes lit up and sugarplums were dancing all around his angelic face as he spoke of his new flame. He was so excited as it was typed in a whimsy font, laminated, and even told tales of his trip to the pet store to get a monkey. It was the most precious thing in the world! If I can admit...it brought a tear to my eye. This sweet, little gal took the time to write a story about Tristan and knew one of his favorite animals was a monkey. What a kind spirit she is! I will be happy to lose my son's heart to a precious gal like that. He wrote her a thank you note adorned with his name and a dinosaur. He thanked her and told her how much he loved the picture. He even went to tell her how he hung it in his art portfolio on the wall. Ahhh, young love... full of creativity and sparks!

when did you start a blog, girl?? so excited! as for the girlfriend thing, i don't know that i will ever be okay with it. i tell josh all the time that i think i will be that mom. i fear that old saying that goes something like a girl is a daughter all of her life, but a boy is a son until he takes a wife. oh, no! i hope not! i am also hoping that surrounding him with all these girls will help as well! ha! but he is a total ladies man already-ugh!
