Ever since we moved into our house, Jace has been quite popular with all the little neighbor girls. They are always knocking on our door and asking if he can play. He even got a love note from one little girl in his kindergarten class. It says: I love you Jace, love Anna. Then she drew a boy and a girl holding hands. She even labeled them Jace and Anna. It was so cute. (Maybe I'll scan it and add it to this post later.)
I always though it was because he's such a cutie. Jace is also a pretty well mannered kid and he's happy to play with anyone. While that may be the case, we recently discovered that there may be more to it than that. This is how the conversation went when we discovered another reason the girls all seem to love our little Jace.
Jace: Dad, I have something I should tell you...But I don't want to...But I should.
Casey: What's that?
Jace: I kissed Olivia.
Casey: You did!? (totally shocked and laughing a little)
Jace: Yes. (A little embarrassed)
Casey: Where did you kiss her?
Jace: On the mouth. (Now even more embarrassed, and suddenly shy; very uncharacteristic for Jace)
Me: Why did you kiss her?
Jace: She told me to...She said she was the princess and she was asleep and wouldn't wake up until I kissed her.
Casey: Have you kissed any other girls?
Jace: Yes...I've kissed Isabel too.
Me: On the mouth?
Jace: No, just on the cheek.
Casey: How did you like it.
Jace: I didn't really like it very much.
Well hopefully it stays that way for a while. A long while. And just to make sure that no more kissing is taking place, Casey ended the conversation like this
Casey: Jace, do you know what happens when you kiss little girls?
Jace: What?
Casey: It makes their dad's really mad.
Me: (Laughing)
I don't know if Casey's last comment had any effect on Jace or not. But I do know that I'm going to have to keep an eye on Jace when he's playing with those little girls.
And I haven't done a smiley list in a long time so here's a new one:
-It snowed!
-The way our Christmas tree looks now that it has lights on it.
-I actually got to pick up a shift at work this week (a rarity lately)
-Jace told me that he still believes in Santa even though some of the other kids in his class don't.
-Camden can sing the ABC song, well most of it. He leaves out E and WXYZ.
-Alek tries to chew his food with his two little front teeth.

So funny about Jace. Are you per diem at work?
cute cute pics of your kids. And I LOVE this post about kissing. My Kami, who is now 9 had little boys giving her presents in pre-school and saying that she was their girlfriend. Luckily things have slowed down a bit but I think she is still pretty boy crazy. I love what your husband said about making dads mad though. Perfect!
This is HILARIOUS! I am still laughing! Man, you guys just wait!
:) Sloane has been telling me that this little boy in her class is her "one true love". I don't think it's gone passed that though. Haha. So funny! You guys have a good Christmas!
