Love is in the air

Ever since Nate and I decided to get married Nate has been worried about me encouraging our children to be boy/girl crazy, because I might have been a teensy bit like that.  I have not encouraged them in any way, but I do encourage them to have an open relationship with me.

The other day Kace was telling me about this 'popular' Sage girl.  I asked him if he liked her.  He said no.  I asked him if he would tell me if he actually did like her.  He said no.  RUDE.  I guess I have failed with him for the time being.  I will work on that.

On to Ty.  He came home from preschool this last week saying that he was going to marry Paisley.  He was telling me all about how he couldn't wait to grow up and get married to her, and that I need not worry he will get in the car and visit me when he is married (phew!)

I asked him how he knew he was going to marry Paisley.  He told me that on Tuesday at school she came up to him and whispered in his ear that she was going to marry him.  I asked him what he said.  He said that he whispered back, okay.  Well, I guess that is that.

He had been talking all week about wanting her to come over and play.  She really wanted to come to his house.  So on Thursday I said that we could call her when I got finished running some errands.  Her mom called while we were still out and about and said that Paisley wouldn't stop talking about playing at Tydon's house and was wondering if they could get together.

So I picked her up and they came over to play for a little bit.  When she came out of the house she had a folded up piece of paper for Ty.  She went over and handed it to him and said this is for you.  Ty looked at it and then didn't look at it again.  I found it in the backseat where he was sitting.  I died laughing.  I mean, I was boy crazy, but I don't think I started writing them notes until at least fourth grade, and even those were.  "Do you like me?  Check the box.  yes. no." or "Do you think I'm pretty? Check the box.  Yes. No."  I think you get the picture.

This was the front of the love note.



And this was on the inside.

I was hysterical.  I thought it was so funny.

Poor Paisley, she has all sisters and didn't really know what to think about all the boy toys.  So they went out in the snow.  Ty just wanted to jump off the dirt hill and run in the snow.  They had fun, but it wasn't a typical, friend over afternoon.  I wonder how long it will last.

PLEASE DON'T MENTION THIS TO TY, I don't want him to know that I told people.  I don't want him to think it is a big deal.  Thanks :)
