the 1st love note

So a lil back story we are at a friend of ours 18th bday party and his dad and my hubby are planning on taking him to a "dance" club for his bday gift.  On the way out to the truck the boys ask were dad is and I tell them in a joking voice that he is going with Shane and Dan to look at pretty girls.  Gage (5 years) pops off with I want to go look at pretty girls also and then says and I want to kiss them.  Which leads to this conversation.....

Logan (8) years tells me that a girl form class gave him a valentine today and that it says she loves him, he wants to show it to me but not tell dad.  When we get home he gets this full size card envelope that is packed to the brim and shows me the picture she colored for him, the drawing of a rainbow colored X, to papers folded with hearts cut out, and this letter.  It reads something like I miss you and I love you and like you as a friend, on the back side it says I love you like a friend and I want to kiss you. 

Now the mom in me is like what in the heck are kids at 8 years old thinking about kissing and loving people.  So what do I do, well I do not remind him to through what he does not want dad to see and in the morning when I see my hubby I tell him, "I am not supposed to tell you but.....and the stuff is left for you to find."  We walk out to the living room where the hubby finds the envelope and one picture, asks Logan what is this and I look over to see the look of "oh crap" on his face.  So logan runs off to his room and I point out that the letter is on the floor so when Logan finally comes back out the hubby "finds" the letter.  Logan tries to grab it from his hand.  Logan and the hubby talk about it and what it says.

Which leads to this conversation with Logan curled up on my lap and me trying really hard not to laugh.  The hubby asks so do you want to kiss her back and Logan says no, the hubby asks do you want to kiss any girls and Logan says no, and the hubby asks do you want to kiss boys and Logan says no way I don't want to be gay.  I found this funny but wondered if he knew what this meant so I asked and he says its when boys kiss boys and girls kiss girls and it is nasty.  My hubby is in heaven and I am sitting in shock.

So this is the random stuff that happens in my life on a daily basis.  I hope to think of a few oldies so if you have a memory of my kids from back in the day tell me and I will try to remember the details enough to post it here.
