Heart "Attack" for Mommy!

I love our daughter, and she is growing so fast...sometimes too fast!

Sheridan announced to me yesterday that she has a BOYFRIEND who is in her class at school! She was so excited and told me his name and that she REALLY, REALLY LIKES him! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This boy was also in her class in Kindergarten, and she told me back then that he was her "boyfriend." I clarified back then that he was a friend that was a boy, and she agreed. This time is different! She has this little sparkle in her eye and a HUGE smile when she talks about him. Could this be her 1st crush?!?! I'm sure the 1st of many! Unfortunately, this is an instance of like mother, like daughter. I had my 1st "boyfriend" in Kindergarten through 1st Grade. We sometimes would see each other at church and sit next to each other. WOW! I feel bad now for my dad!!!

As my stomach is turning into knots and my heart is aching, all I can think is "NOOO!!! NOT YET!!!" Where's my baby?!?! I'm not going to deal with this well when it comes time for "going together" and "first dates," but thankfully that is WWWAAAYYY down the road! At least, it better be!

I am cracking up over this. If it makes you feel better I think I had my first boyfriend in 5th grade. But my first crush was def. in 1st. His name was Cody. Sigh, oh Cody and his parachute pants. Dreamy.
