Young Love...

Awhile back Chortle told Gag that if she teased her daddy again he'd start to call her corn. We didn't really get the insult that the word "CORN" had built up inside his young mind, but from that comment we thought it might be a good idea to teach the principle of "if you can't say something nice..."

Well, corn turned into candy corn and that moment has spurred a series of pet names for our family - Sweet Cheeks, Baby Cakes, Candy Corn, Lemon Drop and Cherry Nose.

I love it when LG hollars at me - I love you baby cakes! or when Gag tells Chortle he's the cutest little lemon drop.

Since then Chortle has turned into quite the romeo. Apparently he's known as "Chortle Eyes" by the girls in his kindergarten class. And just recently he told me that one girl in his class made hearts float out of his eyes.

Young love is so innocent and sweet.
