Before I tell my story, I want to give a huge thank you to all who stopped by for the interview with author, Deanie Humphrys-Dunne! I'd also like to congratulate the winner of the autographed copy of her book - Jess at DMS!
Now for the story.
Yesterday, as I was walking up the street to meet my son after he had gotten off the bus, I saw a strange sight. My boy was running as fast as he could, while a group of about four girls chased him. They seemed to be about his age.
I stopped. Two seconds later, Bubba crashed into me. The girls basically skidded to a stop.
"What's going on here?" I asked.
"We just wanted to talk to Bubba," one of them said.
"Oh," I said. I turned to Bubba. "Then why did you run?"
He looked at me with a very serious expression on his face. "Because sometimes I need a little peace and quiet. These women are too noisy!"
Oh what it is to be popular.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a book to be had out of all these adventures.
I'm not sure if I'll ever create a series or comic books from these stories. Maybe someday.
DeleteI have to agree about girls being noisy since I'm a mom of 5. Bubba understands that.
ReplyDeleteGirls certainly can make a lot of noise!
DeleteHe's a fast learner.
ReplyDeleteHa. I was like Bubba at one point. I saw boys who wanted to talk, and I would literally hide from them.
ReplyDeleteHaha! I don't blame you!
Deletelol hopefully he'll remember that
ReplyDeleteWe'll see if he feels the same way when he's a teenager.
DeleteHarem, huh? Too funny.
ReplyDeleteHe has all the girls chasing him. ;0)
DeleteI wonder if he will think that way in years to come?
ReplyDeleteWe'll see!
Delete...and now I'm laughing. Wait and see, Bubba! (Darling story!)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what he'll say in a few years. Or maybe I can wait! ;0)
DeleteI can imagine the sight - girls chasing one boy called Bubba.
ReplyDeleteIt was rather comical!
DeleteEither way, he's a lucky boy. He will always remember girls chasing him.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope he doesn't get a big head from it!
Deletedon't tell him he has a whole life of putting up with them :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! He has a sister. I'm sure he's already figured out how impossible women can be! ;0)
DeleteThat is so cute! I bet all those girls have a crush on him. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they do. He's a cute, personable kid.
DeleteAh! So cute. Lol, he does know it would never stop?
ReplyDeleteI bet he has no idea!
DeleteWonderful stories...
ReplyDeleteAll the silliness that goes on here!
DeleteHe is so cute. I wonder if those girls were older than him.
ReplyDeleteI think they were a little younger or the same age. But he'd better run from the older women!
DeleteWow, they learn so young don't they?
ReplyDeleteYes, they do!
DeleteThat cute, Sherry. I can just imagine that. Pretty soon, I foresee Bubba having less and less peace!
ReplyDeleteThose women are going to be unrelenting!
DeleteIt's only just begun
ReplyDeleteYou can say that again!
DeleteHee hee. Tell Bubba it will only get worse. :-)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm having issues with my gmail account in that a lot of blogs I follow like yours, I'm not receiving the posts. Ugh. technology.
Sorry about your tech issues. They can be a real pain.
DeleteI wonder if he said something--good or bad--that led to their desire for a conversation.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Who knows? I'm not going to ask. ;0)
Delete*LOL* A reluctant ladies' man.
ReplyDeleteReluctant now. Let's see if that changes in a few years.
DeleteMaybe he's at the stage where girls are still icky. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah. I remember the first few grades and every girl on campus literally chasing the "cute" boy. I have no clue what we'd of done to him if we caught him.
ReplyDeleteLife & Faith in Caneyhead
Haha! Lucky Mama was here to save him. I don't know what would've happened if they had caught him!
DeleteHa, I knew it. It starts now. Bubba's popularity with the ladies. :)
ReplyDeleteI see trouble ahead!
DeleteAwwww. That's so cute. We have a little heartbreaker for a charming subject. :)
ReplyDeleteI bet he'll break a lot of hearts!
DeleteBabu might be an apple to the eyes of those girls,
ReplyDeleteYes. I think they like him.
DeleteAhhhh hahahahaha your son seriously gets cuter and cuter through every post!!
ReplyDeletewww.bohemianmuses.blogspot.com
He's a character!
DeleteBoys everywhere are saying the same thing...but that will change. Oh, Lordy, will it ever!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid of the day that will happen!
DeleteThat's exactly right!
