boyfriend

Ada came home from school the other day and informed Elliot that her little, sweet friend Christopher is her (gasp) boyfriend. We know Christopher, he was the only little boy at her last birthday party, he is the only boy allowed into Ada's little clique of girls, and Ada talks about him almost as much as she talks about her favorite girl friends.

Looking back - we probably should have seen this coming.

But we didn't.

At first I thought it meant that he was just a boy that was a friend (and really that's about all it is at this age), but she gets that giggly school girl look on her face whenever she talks about him. Seriously, Ada is going through her first full blown crush.

To top it all off, last night Ada informed us that if she grows up at the same time as Christopher they are going to get married. At least she understands that getting married is a grown up action.

As with most phases in Ada's life we are doing our best to just ride this one out, calling on the old adage, "This too shall pass".

That being said, Elliot is sharpening his knife collection as we speak.
