Friendship Not Romance

I guess the older kids have been teasing him a bit too much lately.

Our youngest has been a bit girl crazy really since birth I guess. When he was three years old, we were coming out of a restaurant when he saw two pretty teenagers. He turned his head back as we passed them and innocently declared "whoa!" My hubby and I were in shock! He most certainly did not learn this reaction in our home! And at that point, he hadn't been anywhere else without us. When we asked him why he thought the girls were pretty, he said that they had pretty hair and eyes. Um, O.K., so we realized right there he is going to melt a few hearts one day.

Yesterday Justice took a day trip to Dallas with his Daddy and a friend with a three year girl. After they arrived home, I asked him, without implications of anything romantic, "did you have fun with K.?" His answer was quite defensive. "Well, I don't want to tell you because then they'll (his brother and sister) tease me."

I took that as a yes and as an opportunity to have a talk with the older two about cooling it already.
