Love Letter

On Monday the girls got home from school, they came in the house after being home for about an hour Morgan starts to tell Garrett about what happened on the bus ride home. Madalyn got a love letter, from a boy in her class. It said
Dear Madalyn,
I love you. I want to be your boyfriend.
Love Jacob
Madalyn overheard Morgan telling Garrett about the love letter and she was so mad at Morgan for telling us. Madalyn started crying and ran to her room. I didn't know any of this was happening (I was running on the treadmill in our room) until Garrett said you better come out here and talk to Madalyn he then told me what had happened. So I went in to talk to Madalyn about the letter. She told me what had happened. She said Jacob had given the letter to Crete (who rides her bus) Crete give the letter to her on the bus. She was so embarrassed after she read the letter on the bus she put it in the trash on the bus and told Morgan not to tell us. I guess it might pay off having our kids close in age, they can tell us what each other is doing. Anyway, I had a nice long talk with Madalyn about how it ok to get letters and that she did nothing wrong and just cause she got the letter she doesn't have to be his girl friend.
That night I just laughed at how in 10 years she will love getting love letters. We are in for many more long talks.
P.S. if you live here don't say anything to her about the letter she is so embarrassed.

It is hard for me to believe that you have someone that old. It seems like only yesterday that you and Tia were here at my house. You came down with Mother and Dad for a Mendenhall reunion. You girls needed to have curlers put in your hair. So I started working on putting curls in. 3 hours later I was done. Now you have 4 little girls and I am sure it only takes you 30 minutes or less to do all their hair. Love your blog!!!
