Cassanova

It was a typical summer evening. Or maybe not.

After dinner, we grabbed a few popsicles and headed outside to the playground to enjoy the cool canyon breeze. Andrew found his 4-year-old friend Kaylie and they were off. A few moments later, I noticed that Kaylie & Andrew were huddled inside the tunnel of the play gym. At first, I thought they were fighting (at times they get into little tiffs), so I headed over to them just in time to hear sweet, innocent, little Kaylie whispering, "Kiss me..." I didn't quite know what to do or say so I turned around and walked over to Kaylie's mom and said, "Um. I think your daughter is trying to seduce my son." Annette (Kaylie's mom) caught them in the act and said, "Kaylie, what're you doing?" Kaylie popped out of the tunnel, and with all the sass she could muster, said, "It wasn't my idea!"

Well, whosever idea it was, I was witness to Andrew's first kiss.

Later that evening during bathtime, I had this conversation with Andrew:

Mom: Did Kaylie kiss you?

Andrew: Yep.

Mom: Did you kiss Kaylie?

Andrew: Yep.

Mom: Did you like it?

Andrew: Yep.

And there you have it...a four-year-old's summer romance.

What a story! I didn't know the kissing started so early. Ahh! Maybe Conrad should stay a toddler.
