A Conversation with Sebastian
Monday afternoon, after Sebastian’s conference, the two of us went for a walk. Along the way, we were talking about school. This is part of the conversation.
Seb: A lot of the girls at school have crushes on some of the boys now.
Me: Oh, really.
Seb: Yeah, it’s crazy.
Me: So, do any of the girls have a crush on you?
Seb: Nope. I’m just lucky I guess. Who would want to have girls chasing after you all the time, anyway?
Me: (laughing) You will. Just you wait.
It was really cute the way he said it. But the best part of the walk? He held my hand nearly the entire time. Now that he’s such a big second grader, he’s not into the whole showing affection in public thing. It’s embarrassing. But for whatever reason, he was okay with it this time. And it just topped off a great day.
