Crush

Ella's in the midst of her first real crush.

Journaling:
She has this insane crush on a boy in her class, Zach Seitler. She talks about him every day. She wonders if he likes her. Should she ask him or not? What am I supposed to do with this information? Its too soon. She is only 9 years old. At first, I tried ignoring it hoping it would go away. Now Im trying to encourage her to stay a kid a little while longer for I know that these childhood years are fleeting. There will be so many more boys in her future and that time is not now. Of course shes not listening but at least Im talking. Zach will move to Washington State in the Spring and this crush will fizzle, only to make way for more boys and heartbreak. October 2011

i haven't been down this path yet, maybe i will leave it to the big brothers to sort out :). beautiful memory recorded, one that she will more than likely forget when she is our age.
 
I remember ....... i was 7 and he was the teacher!
Now i'm wondering whether he knew?
Love the dreamy/grey picture below.
 
Anna great page about "the crush" - I remember mine - My best friend Suzie and I both liked Herbie Wampsley in 2nd grade - we kissed him at the same time ... one of us on the right and 1 of us on the left. He turned so red ! Thanks for the memory....!
 
Oh Anna..........yes, she's so young and beautiful and always will be your little baby girl but.....'times they are a changing'. She'll love you for understanding and listening to her. A wonderful page.
Maybe this is something to cheer you up:

Such a beautiful little girl! The preteen years (sigh)! Key is she IS talking . . and you are listening.
 
Adore that soft, sweet picture of her looking up at the camera! I think 'talking' is the key--just keep the conversation going when possible. Love the strong vertical feel of this design against the horizontal stripes in the bg paper!
