It begins so early, when a boy and girl meet. Their eyes connect, hormones rise to the top, and tuh-duh! It all goes from there.

But,
must it start so early? When both are still in diapers/nappies? When
running without falling is an accomplishment? When words are understood
by the parents, but few other people?
I guess it does.
Re-post from 2015. Little boy is our grandson, all of 3 years old.
At that age, they have no idea...
ReplyDeleteNo, they don't. He is now 10 years old and we are blessed to enjoy him (and his little 5 yr. brother).
DeleteAt that age meeting anyone new is exciting...
ReplyDeleteOh, they are.
DeleteShe has him locked in.
ReplyDeleteShe's blond, what can I say.
DeleteIt could be love. It could be hate ;)
ReplyDeleteAt that age, love and hate are cousins.
DeleteWe used to call that "A good Ice Breaker!" Such a cute shot though. NICE!
ReplyDeleteI would love to know what 3 yr. olds talk about when they first meet.
Delete;-) yep that would be interesting!
DeleteIt's a good way to learn what it means to make friends.
ReplyDeleteIt is for sure.
DeleteFor a rare few couples it really does start that early. Best friends for life.
ReplyDeleteWe met at college, got married.
DeleteHas he bought her some sweets?
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I don't they have move to that stage.
DeleteI want to share a sweet experience that involves love between two little first graders. (Love, not hormones.) Years ago I was a long term temporary substitute for a first grade class whose regular teacher had to be out for the rest of the year. Well, a little boy and little girl were just enamored of each other! They couldn't take their eyes off each other and held hands walking to the bus or walking to lunch. Their faces were just radiant when they looked at each other (you could almost see a Disney-cartoon of their hearts going thump-thump-thump). I have always wondered what happened in their futures. I even thought it could be a reincarnation thing (I believe in reincarnation), with them simply being happy to have met up again. It was truly sweet.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! Where are they now?
DeleteI have no idea. I've always wondered: Did they grow up and marry each other? Did one of the families move and they lost touch? It will always be a mystery.
DeleteI'll hazard a guess and say I doubt it was all that serious then... how about now?
ReplyDeleteI think the floozy is about 10 and getting hormonal.
DeleteI look back when I met Jack and I feel like I was just a baby then! Ha!
ReplyDeleteWe met in college, got married in 1972. We were just kids, altho we didn't know it.
DeleteHimself was 2 and I was 3 when his parents bought the house next door to my parents' house.
ReplyDeletei think if it is the love it will grow deeper with age and will prove on of the most trustworthy love experience because i have observed that true friends belong to mostly this age when we are so little and hardly understand such things
ReplyDeletea sweet post !
