Ladies Man

My son loves the ladies! Caleb has always been partial to the girls, but it was totally evident this weekend. On Saturday, we decided to take the kids to the donut shop for breakfast. We ran into one of the little girls from his class, Anna. Cutie pie little girl! He kept telling us all about her, and she was telling her dad all about Caleb. When we sat down to eat, Caleb said the blessing, but he was staring Anna down the whole time! Usually, my strange son eats the edges around the donut and leaves the inside part. He was so consumed with Anna that he ate the entire donut! Then he starts "whistling" at her. Kind of just making a whistling sound at her and putting his fingers up to his mouth. Where does he learn this stuff??? It was so cute! Anna kept turning around to check Caleb out, too. She left first, and Caleb wistfully looks at her and says, "Bye, Anna." I asked if he thought she was pretty, and I got an enthusiastic "Uh-huh!!"

Then yesterday after church we had another little conversation. There's this girl (a 6th grader!) named Sarah that he is totally in love with! She's so cute and bubbly and just dotes on Caleb. We always have a greeting time at the beginning of service, and Caleb talked to Sarah for a minute yesterday. After church, he looked at me and said, distraughtly, "Mom! Why did I not give Sarah a hug today?" He was so upset! Oh, the things I have to look forward to!

The good thing is at least he is still innocent....He's gotten into drawing, and he was drawing an elephant or something the other day with his dad and wanted to make it a girl elephant. Thankfully, in his mind, the way you make something a girl is to add hair!!! So sweet!

My other little man is oblivious to the opposite sex at the moment! He's totally into boy stuff...wrestling and balls and trucks. He is getting more affectionate. I'm loving that! He comes up to me all the time and puckers those lips wanting a kiss. He's giving great hugs too! I'm glad I'm the only woman in his life!
