Boyfriend

So, Payton has a boyfriend.  Lovely.  He has liked her the whole entire year, and she finally gave up and said yes to him.  I met him in October and he is a winner.  He was held back last year, so he is almost 8.  He has silver teeth.  He wears his pants down to his ankles so you can see his "underwear" giggle giggle.  (That is how Payton says it).  She told me in December that he kept asking if she would be is girlfriend and she kept telling him no.  Well, she finally told me that she was fine with it and decided.  I asked what that meant to be his girlfriend and she didn't know.  I asked if she does anything different with him than the other boys in the class, and she said no.  So, I told her to tell him they can just be friends because she is too young for a boyfriend.  We will see if she does it.

The other funny thing I put in her brain is that boyfriends make you sick.  ha ha.  She threw up last week and yesterday she had a fever all day and was sick again.  I told her that is because of getting a boyfriend you get sick more often.  Eleanor never got sick, and she doesn't have a boyfriend, so that must be it.  She said, "Mom, I know you are kidding.  I think.  Right?  You are kidding, right?"  Ha ha.  I am going to let her beleive that for now.  :)
