Heart-Break

A little back-story to set the scene...

My youngest, the charmer, attends pre-school.

Not just any pre-school, it's hosted by the local high school. Because of this, his class is incorporated in to the high school learning program and high school students act as teachers and aids.

It took only the first few minutes of his first class before he had wooed and charmed every high school student teacher and aid.

The girls literally, physically fight over who gets to hold him, help him, teach him, tend to him, carry him.....

He eats up every minute of it, and has picked one as his favorite. Miss A.
 
Until Recently...

I got in the car one afternoon, recently, to find my Mr. Mr. Gettie in tears.

Heart-wrenching, air sucking, sobbing tears.

When asked why he was so sad, he replied "Because Miss A. can't be my girlfriend"

Caught between a laugh and sympathy, I asked for details.

"I tried to kiss her, and she turned her cheek. Daddy says I can't be her girlfriend, she's too old".

Oh the heart-ache.

I guess the story goes, that he tried to go in for a kiss, she saw her young student coming towards her and turned her head, catching his advances on the cheek.

We've had to give my little guy "the talk". The you are too young for girls, no girlfriends until you are 30, girls have cooties, no kissing...talk.

I thought boys were supposed to be easier to handle. They are supposed to be rough, tough, and dirty, but no drama. *sigh*
