Young Love Begins...

I know Jaron's going to be so embarrassed when he reads this, but I thought what he said to me today was so cute and sweet that I have to write it down so I can always remember it.

Jaron's at that age where girls are really starting to be "cute" to him and he's always had more than one girl he's liked at a time for the past couple years. One of the girls he liked (Kristin) moved after the school year last year and he was heartbroken, but he always has a back-up. The other girl is named Kylene...she's such a beautiful little girl. Unfortunately, this year Jaron and Kylene aren't in the same class, but that hasn't stopped anything. The other day while I was waiting for Jaron's teacher to come get the kids for class, Kylene walked by with her class. As soon as Jaron and her saw each other their cheeks turned red, they both bowed their heads down a little, smiled at each other, gave a small wave that only they could see, and said "hi" to each other. It was so cute!

So, today Jaron came home from school all excited, I could tell he had something good to tell me. Here's how it went...

Jaron: "Mom, I have the best news!"
Me: "What is it?"
Jaron: "Today Kylene told me she likes me and I told her I like her too. She's now my girlfriend."
Me: "Oh, that's so cute!"

...I don't think that's the response he wanted from me, but I really do think it's cute and they're so innocent so there's nothing wrong with it. Am I really ready for Jaron to start having real crushes on girls? Someone please stop him from growing up...please!!

Here's a picture of Jaron and Kylene from the last day of school last year. It's one of my favorites because of the look on Jaron's face, not to mention how he has his arm around her.

And I love how his little fingers are curled up so he doesn't TOTALLY have his arm around her. Lucky Kylene I say!
