Max -- The Ladies Man

This morning was "Dad's for Donuts" at the elementary school. This is for dad's to come with their children before school to read books and eat donuts. I was informed last night that it's not just for dad's so the chillens wanted me to go.

So, after waking up late, we made it in time to get the cardboard tasting glazed (yuck) donut

and we read one book before the bell rang.

(Mental note: Next time don't sleep in and skip the donut!)

But it was fun to go.

Max asked if I could stay and read with him during his

reading time in class.

I noticed something kind of funny. We walked into his classroom and the cutest girls, one by one, make their way to Max to say hi with the batting of eyelashes and their huge smiles and giggles. It was the funniest thing. Then I realized...

Max is a ladies man!

Then we start reading and I notice that he's not paying any attention to the story. He starts making up words and stumbling over words I know he knows. I tell him he needs to pay attention and he says okay and then he does it again. I look up at him and he's totally smiling this goofy smile at this girl and she's smiling back! Then he waves and yells out, "Hi Abby (named changed)!" and continues smiling the goofy smile! I couldn't believe it.

Max has a little girlfriend!

She's a little girl that was in his class last year and I kind of noticed it on a field trip. They were never far from each other the whole trip but I just thought it was cute. Well, today after he yells out I say to him, "Oh, Abby's here! That explains why you can't concentrate!" He turned all red and embarrassed --

but still smiling! Oh boy!

If it's like this at six, I'm in trouble!!!!

(We need to have a talk!)
