I spotted a new crush today in second grade. One little boy L. was just annoying this little girl A. by sitting too close to her during Bible Story. This little girl is already old beyond her years, and whenever something strange happens in classes, or there's a joke no one else catches, she'll look at me. Does that make sense?
So, as this is going on, she keeps catching my eye thoughout the story and I keep asking L. to "find his own space". Later on when they are packing their backpacks he takes her shoes "because they're his". Then later he offers to help her put on her scarf. A. just looks at him like he's nuts.
I couldn't help but smile. I don't know if she's quite aware of why L.'s been paying so much attention to her lately.
Oh my goodnes! I just realized I already knew about this (and I bet A. does too)! Last week it was A.'s 1/2 birthday. On half birthdays a lot of the time the kids will only write half of each letter or half of a picture. L. wrote a message for A.
L - "Do you know what it says?"
A - "Yes, and it's not appropriate."
B - "That says 'I Love You'!"
A - "Yes, and that's not appropriate right now!"
Ah, second graders never fail to make me smile.
