boy meets girl

Once upon a time, there was a boy. He was a fine boy, handsome and clever. He was not a sad boy, yet his natural disposition could probably be described as more brooding than jovial.


And once there was a girl, a cherubic and sunny girl, whose tendency always leaned toward smiling. Although she had times of strife, as all girls do, it was known throughout the land that a smile could be coaxed into emergance through even the most heartfelt tears.



As for the boy, few could claim that his elusive smiles were easy to cajole.
.
But if you ask the girl, she might tell a different story.


Some people were just made for each other.

Oh. My. God. Baby Girl Carsyn?? Look at her! Her eyes are certifiably *sparkling*. He looks like her beautiful mom Des.

I love it Jacquie.

And, um, when did your boy become a giant man?

Oh Jaquie, how wonderful. You know that this only means one thing, right?....you should have a baby!

Get busy.

Yes, I know, but they're reversible.

Ha! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! Almost choked on my coffee there.

Why should I go to all the trouble of having a baby when my nutty friends keep popping them out?

That was adorable. It's also amazing how much our ten-year-olds are looking like miniature teenagers, aren't they? Your boy is a heartbreaker, he just doesn't know it yet. Enjoy the next few years before he realizes the power of that pout, Jacquie.
