On Valentines Day, after Blake's preschool party we came home and read all of his Valentines from his friends. I would read him the tag lines and say who it was from. I came across one with a dog and cat that said "Best Friends" and I said "from Carrie." Blake said "who is that from?" I again said "Carrie, do you know Carrie?" to which he replied "yeah, can I see that?".
Blake walked away from the table and put the Valentine in his pocket! He carried it around with him all day. Now, of course, by that night it was his mission letter from the Star Wars bad guys, but ya know he's a boy...he can't get totally sentimental.
A few days after that, I was talking to my mom and I said I thought Blake had his first crush...she said "is it Carrie?". I asked her how she knew and she said he had told her about the Valentine he got from her.
Then, today (a few weeks later) after school we were in the car and Blake randomly said "today was change your name day at school and Carrie's new name is Daisy". I said "oh that sounds fun! What was your new name?" Blake explained that he didn't want to change his name but Carrie did.
Something about this little thing (crush OR friendship) whatever it may be, makes me smile every time I think about it.
I mean really, who can resist this sweet boy?
