My ten-year-old son came home from school with a Band Aid affixed to his chin.
"What happened?" I asked.
"Girl problems," he said.
I raised my eyebrows. "Already?"
He nodded. "They were chasing me on the playground. I got sick of it, so I turned around and started chasing them. But then something happened. One girl collided into me, and we both fell down." He rubbed his chin. "This is from that."
"I see," I said. "Girls can be a real pain. Best to stay away from them. Forever!"

This is only the beginning. Just wait until he catches one. (Without running into her of course.)
ReplyDeletewell, if they're chasing him... that can only be a good sign... we wouldn't wanna people running away from him....
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Boys!! This is WAY too cute! I most like the "FOREVER" part!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha I was always the one being chased. I knew every hiding place on the playground because I was not interested in icky cootie covered boys!
ReplyDeleteI love it. What a funny kid.
ReplyDeletePS: Regarding your comment, the lemon and chia bake great together. I bake with them all the time. Also good on top of breads and bagels.
Cheers and boogie boogie.
LOL! That's what happens when a boy tries to chase a girl. ;)
ReplyDeleteNot forever.
ReplyDeleteLove,

Happy BLITZ DAY, Sherrie! Good to see you :-)
ReplyDeleteOh the fun of the chase!
ReplyDeleteWay to turn the tables!
ReplyDeleteCute story! Hope you enjoy your Blitz Day! :)
ReplyDeletehaha forever won't last very long
ReplyDeleteKids are usually vulnerable to such consequences. They don't know the end - product and keep on playing, chasing etc.
ReplyDeletetoo cute... girl problems beginning so early..!! hope it remains cute like this "forever"...!
ReplyDeleteGood advice mum.
ReplyDeleteLet's see how long that lasts! LOL
HAPPY BLOG BLITZ DAY SHERRY!

ReplyDeleteSounds like your son has made quite the impression on the young ladies.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BLITZ DAY!! : )
If a grazed chin is the worst he gets, he'll have done very well. Happy blitz day!
ReplyDeleteLoved the story about your son. Happy Blitz Day!
ReplyDeleteCute story. I'm amazed at how young the boys and girls chase each other around on the playground.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your blitz day!
That's the same advice I'd give my boy! :) Happy Blitz Day!
ReplyDeleteIf only that could be the most pain he ever feels from a girl.
ReplyDeleteLove that! :) Happy Blitz Day!

Those girls are brutal! Lol
ReplyDeleteHappy Blitz Day!
Happy Blitz Day! Funny how attitudes change over the course of years. It's too bad these changes aren't more in sync between boys and girls. That would sure save a lot of grief!
ReplyDeleteHi, Sherry! This story is so cute. I remember elementary school when boys and girls would chase each other on the playground. One of those silly boys is now my husband. So who knows–maybe that girl your son collided with will be your future daughter-in-law! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading and writing! from Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines
I used to chase one boy in particular when I was in kindergarten. Never caught him though. Tell your son he'll have better luck when he stops chasing and starting talking to them... probably in a few years.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blitz Day!
And guess what? Happy Blitz day!
ReplyDeleteCute post! Happy blitz day!
ReplyDeleteLovely anecdote. Happy Blitz Day!
ReplyDeleteForever might be wise
ReplyDeleteI don't think he'll stay away from girls forever.
