Sadie and her "boyfriend"

 

So, the other day as I am trying to hurry and drop off the kids, because once again I am running late, Sadie's teacher stops me and says she needs to speak with me. Great! What has she done now? So, I drop Charlie off and give Sadie a kiss in the hallway and tell her to "Have a great day!" as she heads off down the hallway. All the time, I am trying to figure out what she has done. So, I head back up to the front, where her teacher is doing car duty, ready for the worst. Her teacher then precedes to tell me that she has a "boyfriend" and that they were "kissing" on the playground. Apparently this is causing a distraction to the rest of the class. Trying not to laugh, because I know exactly who she is talking about, I say I understand and her father and I will speak with her about it that night.

The two "love birds"

 

They have known each other since birth. His parents are our best friends and we see each other quite a bit, so of course he is her "boyfriend."

It has been so cute watching the two of them grow up, but now, apparently, it is a distraction to the other students. So, we had our "talk." We explained to her that she is too young to have a "boyfriend" and that kisses needed to be saved for mommy and daddy. We said, you can give your boyfriend  friend hugs, but only when one of us is around.

 

So, for now, Sadie and Jaydn are just friends, but the best of friends. I love watching the two of them grow up and I cannot wait to embarrass them when they get older with these wonderful stories of their "love" for one another.
