"Just a minute," he said as he stepped outside.
Hmmm...why exactly does an eleven year old boy need to step outside to take a call??
"I had the best day ever today!"
This proclamation came back to me.
Hmmm...
"Mom, I have a girlfriend."
Nnnnooooo...went my heart.
"Really?" went my words.
"Her name is Savannah. She was born in Mississippi."
As I looked at her picture, I saw a beautiful child. Seriously. I could almost hear the soft southern roll in her voice.
"Mom, you are not nearly as excited as her mom is."
My competitive heart lurched again, but this time realizing I have experienced a few first crushes. There is a reason for the word crush, and it nags at my heart.
