Jamie

Jamie happens to be my new boyfriend. He is a very handsome 8 year old with dark brown hair, brown eyes and the longest eyelashes I have ever seen. Yes, I am smitten. He moved into to neighborhood and he and a little girl that lives nearby knocked on my door one day to introduce himself and see if I had any kids that might like to come out and ride bikes with them. I said no, but told him I knew who his mother, father and grandmother were from bowling. The next time he came by I wasn't home and he ask Earl "is the old lady that lives here home?". Well, of course you know that cracked Earl up. Not me so much when Earl told me, but pleased Jamie wanted to say hello.

At first Jamie's visits were every few days, but now it has become almost a daily thing. He is so adorable and says the funniest things. Saturday he came by and I told him I was sorry, but I was getting ready to go to Church and he said that was OK he would come back on Sunday. True to his word here he comes. I had the same dress on that I wear around the house and he commented he had seen me wear that yesterday. And then he said incredulously "did you wear that to Church???" Guess he doesn't think much of the dress. I said no, I just wear this when I am at home and he said "that's good". Kids are so honest. Much more than adults.

Anyway, I am enjoying our daily chats, even if at times some of the comments are a blow to my ego.
