Blake

Yesterday as I walked out my front door to leave for work I could hear someone saying "Hi" to me. I looked down the stairs and there was Blake, my 5 year old neighbor. He's blonde and has a huge thing for brunettes. It doesn't seem to bother him that I'm old enough to be his mother (or in some countries, his grandmother). He was sitting on the steps eating a donut with his cute little sister Kierlyn who looks like a doll and weighs less than her donut. We had an exchange that left me laughing all day. It went like this:

Me: "Whatcha doin' Blake?"
Blake: "We're moving today. We're going to our next house. What are you doing?"
Me: "I'm on my way to work."
Blake: "Well, what are your plans today?"
Tiffany (his mom): " I think he just asked you out."
Me : " Oh. Did you want to take me out for a cup of coffee or something?" I thought that might have thrown him off since us Mormons don't drink coffee but he just sat there with a big smile on his face.
Than I told him that I would help them move when I got off work if they still needed help but they were all done when I got home.

I'll miss you, Blake! I hope you find a beautiful new brunette friend in your new ward, who will meet you at the drinking fountain and walk you back to Primary.

A while ago I posted this blurb about Nie Nie and her sister Courtney who have captivated countless people with their blogs. Nie Nie and her husband Mr. Nielsen were in a plane crash last year and are in recovery. Mindy Gledhill is performing at a benefit concert for Nie Nie on February 2nd. See this cute flyer and mindygledhill.com for the deets. Please please buy tickets and come!
