You're Cool

Nathan said to me the other day,
"You are cool. I like you. You're my baby."
I said, "I'm your baby?"
He said, "Yes, my baby girl, like Daddy calls you that."
I said, "Ok" with my heart all a glow.... :)

A New Title

Rylan: Can you believe what Wayra said today? She said she wants....me to be.....her boyfriend. She asked me to be and I said no, then she asked me again and again and again. I told her I was never going to be a boyfriend and she said if I don't be her boyfriend she's never going to like me anymore.
Me: She said she's not going to like you anymore?
Rylan: Yes, so I said.......yes.
Me: What is a boyfriend and girlfriend?
Rylan: I don't know but I am her boyfriend.
Me: Are you happy?
Rylan: Yes.

Old Man

Nathan was playing swords with Daddy. Daddy said, "I'm going to get you!" Nathan said, "Uh-uh Old Man!" We all cracked up at that.

Lover Boy

Rylan was very happy to tell us today that Wayra said she's going to like him every day. He said, "Mom, I don't even have to ask her anymore!" Apparently they are an item, according to the teacher. They say they're boyfriend and girlfriend and that they're going to get married, although he denies that to us.

The "dumbest" day

I asked Rylan how school was on Friday. He said, "Today was the dumbest day at school." I was quite shocked to hear that response, but asked him why. He said that Wayra keeps going "back and forth, back and forth" saying that she likes him then she doesn't. "She just can't make up her mind! Why does she do that?" I replied, "I don't know honey, sometimes girls just have a hard time deciding."

"They found each other"

We were driving home from church and listening to classical music to soothe the savage beasts in the back seat. We try to picture what's happening based on the music. For example, the music sounded sad and lonely and Rylan said, "It sounds like someone is lost." Then the music picked up and we said it sounds like someone was running. Then the music got sweet and almost romantic, and I said, "It sounds like they found each other." That last statement triggered a memory from the day for Rylan. He said, "Mom, do you know that something very special happened today at school?" I was intrigued, so I asked what it was. He said, "Wayra said that she likes me now and she's my friend." I was driving, so I couldn't see his face, but I could hear the smile in his voice. I told him that was great and I'm happy for him. But I just had to know, "How does that make you feel?" "Happy," he said very quietly. Later he brought it up again and said, "Wayra said that she likes me best out of all the boys in school. She likes me more." I was so happy for him!
A couple days later we were looking at the graduation pictures that were up on the board at school. We were looking for his picture, but he found hers first. He pointed at it and looked at me with a little smirk. That's all, nothing said, it was written all over his face. <3
