Last year, Tornado E had a little girlfriend KJ. She adored Tornado E talking about him all the time. Tornado E adored her because she was energetic and loved playing tag. KJ’s mom adored Tornado E because he was a sweet, bright kid. I adored KJ because she was a whirlwind and a tomboy. KJ’s dad was not in an adoring mood. KJ’s attention has never wavered. Tornado E’s has.
Tornado E: Daddy! I have two girlfriends!
The Husband: From your lips to God’s ears, son.
I was less than amused at that comment, but we’re talking kindergartners here. How much trouble could they get into?
A couple of days ago I had to gather up the boys right after school to go pay for Tornado E’s milk card.
Tornado E: K! I have to go to the office! We’ll be right back!
K came running in her bohemian outfit and boots.
K: That’s ok! I’ll wait!
Then she kissed him on his cheek.
Tornado E pretended to faint.
K giggled and ran off.
Tornado E got back to his feet and beamed.
I cocked an eyebrow.
Me: My boy, you are melodramatic.
Tornado E: I’m not melodramatic! I’m dramatic!
Oh, kid, I’m going to have to beat in gentlemanly behavior into you or you are going to lose your favorite appendage sooner rather than later.

Penis rule number 4: Don’t wave it at a girl until you are 16! (legal age here)

My offer to take out the hubby still stands.
I’m glad K ran off. Keep your scary mom mask in your purse if they don’t run off on their own.

kloppenmum~ EXACTLY. Though I think 17 is the legal age. God, I don’t want to even think of the penis rules I have to add at puberty.
jc~ Seriously. I heart you.
