Young love

All year I've heard stories about Bugs "girlfriend".

Really?.... already?

I've kind of shined it on.

I'm a mommy in denial.

When the teachers told me that he was telling this girl that

she was beautiful during class.

I laughed it off .
When I heard they were holding hands.

I figured she would have cooties the next week.

When I learned that she cried the week Bug was out sick.

I thought she had a problem.

When they put her next to Bug in the graduation show so she would actually

walk onto the stage.

I thought she must be terribly shy.

Last week when I attended the end of year field trip

she was there with her mom.
Her mom came right up to me and introduced herself.

She told me "I've heard lots and lots about Bug."

I thought her mom was a bit obsessed.

My boy was not in love with this little girl.

Then as the two of them stood in line for the little Ferris wheel,

I heard Bug say to the operator,

"Can two people sit in a car? Because A and I want to sit in that red one together"

Then I watched as he helped her into her seat and put her seat belt on.

I finally had to admit it.... my boy is smitten.

Now who's going to break it to them that they will be in different schools next year?
