Boys and Girls

The other night Alisia's school had Chic-fil-a night we went to and Caleb got to see several friends from last year. One of the girls that used to be in his class came directly over to our table and started twirling her hair and says "HIIIIIIiiiii Caaaleeeeb"

Caleb barely making eye contacted responded with "hi," but was obviously embarrassed because his family and friends were around too. He tries ignoring her then she says "Caleb, We have 23 people in our class this year and if you were in our class it'd be 24" still twirling her hair.

Caleb's response "So, I don't care."

She goes on to tell him all about 2nd grade and their teacher and speed drills in math and learning cursive and everything else he's missed.

After not much response from Caleb, she walks away still with a big smile on her face.

Alisia gets after him for his response to her and gives him advise on treating girls. His friend also tries giving him advise cause now there's a girl he likes too.

Caleb just isn't there yet. And that's OK with me. Maybe he does need a few lessons on how to respond politely. But I love how boys and girls are so different at this age and I'm kinda happy that for now, girls are still yucky. I know it won't be like that forever.
