We are in BIG trouble

At Brynn and Gavin's school they have a Valentine's tea party. The kids dress up in their nice clothes. They teach the kids etiquette and then pair a boy up with a girl. The boys pull the chairs out for the girls and bring them punch and cookies.

Here is the difference between boys and girls:
For the last two years Gavin has been hoping he will be sick on this day of school.

Brynn on the other hand has planned for this day all week. She picked out her dress and then picked out another dress, and then finally settled on a skirt. She also had very specific ideas about how she wanted her hair done, and what shoes to wear.
She also "likes" this boy in her class and has been really hoping she would be paired with him. She came home today all excited because she was paired up with this boy, Parker.

She has been so giddy about this. She also told me that she wrote Parker a note asking him if he liked her.

Really? She is only 8. We are in trouble. I think it might be time to invest in some guns.
