Preschool Crushes

Ok, so the kids will probably kill me later (years) if they ever read this entry. But first they have to learn how to read! This year is Rose's second year of preschool and David's first. They both have the same teacher (Sue Martin) at Garden Road Elementary, but on different days. This means all 3 of my kids go to school every day to drop off or pick someone up. They spend a lot of time in both classes and with all the school mates in both classes. This year Rose developed a crush on a boy in David's class named Joey Zaretsky. It's very much mutual and has been going on pretty much since last fall. She talks about Joe all the time and wonders aloud why he loves her so much, and how he wants to marry her. From talking to his Mom, sounds like he talks about Rosie all the time at home too. It's easy to get Rose motivated to get to school on the days she will get to see and play with Joe.

Now David.... he has a girl who instantly fell for him this past fall. Her name is Emily Lawless and coincidentally, her grandparents live at the end of our street. We didn't know this until after her Mom and I were talking at the start of the school year. Emily looks forward to seeing David every day. She is always the first to say hello when we walk into class. I'd like to say he is smitten with her too, but he is a hard one to read. He does love to play with her and when she asks to hold his hand on the way to the parking lot, he usually obliges. How long will this all last? Who knows....but for now it's so fun to watch. Ah, young love!

Oh.... and both Joey Z and Emily have adorable little sisters. Perhaps we can get Joey Stitzer hooked up too!
