"Crushing" for the First Time

Today after dinner Logan was running around, dancing to his own music and generally being happy and goofy. He kept shooting sly looks at his sister. I stood, eyeing them, trying to figure out what was going on.

"I have a secret Mommy," Logan said.
"Oh yeah, what's your secret?" I asked, praying it wouldn't be that he "accidentally" misplaced a hermit crab or something.
"Well....(grins, turns bright red) I can't tell you. It has to do with <draws a heart in the air with his hands>"
"Do you like someone Logan?" I ask sweetly. He is very easily embarassed and I want him to be able to tell us these types of things.
"Lilly, you tell her." Logan blurts out.
Lilly shines her half smile at me with a look that says, "aaaah, it's so cute."
(You know, something you would say as a mother when two babies first meet and clasp their hands together. I swear she is WAY to grown up already.)
"Logan is crushing on a girl at school," Lilly finally spits out.
Logan looks up at me smiling, "Her name is Lauren."
"I see," I say and give him a kiss, "is she cute?"
"Yeah, she is Mom. But she's mostly really nice. And I'm pretty sure she's crushing on me because she chases me around and I like it."

OMG! My sweet little boy is "crushing" on some little girl! He couldn't have told us in a sweeter manner. For as tough and strong as that boy is I'm sure that he is going to be a gentle giant when it comes to the ladies. For all of you six or seven year old girls out there this is one to watch!
