Those are the words she said right after he told her she was the most beautiful girl he has ever seen.

What ever happen to “circle, circle, dot, dot, now I got my cootie shot?” My son is in kindergarten, when we were getting ready for bed the other night; he told me he has something to tell me. I asked him what it was, and he said, “Naomi is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, mom.” I said “wow, did you tell her?” “No, but I am going to tell her tomorrow at school.”

All day long, while I was working the next day, I wondered if he was actually going to tell her. I wondered what she looked like and who she was for him to be so infatuated. I was tickled to death he took my advice I had been trying to imprint into his mind. I have always told him, "if you want to make a girl smile, tell her she is beautiful", he has never had a problem telling a woman she is beautiful.

When I picked him up that afternoon, I asked him if he told her. He said “Yes, I told her.” “You did? What did she say when you told her? As I sat in the truck staring at him, anxiously awaiting him to answer, he had a sad look on his face. “Well, what did she do? What did she say?” He then answered, “She told me, “Well, you’re ugly”.”

I felt so bad for him. Today, he came home and told me that Naomi was still the most beautiful girl in the world. I said, “I thought she told you, you were ugly?” He said, “She did, but she is still my girlfriend.”

What happen to boys had cooties? And girls are gross? I can remember when we girls would make girls only forts and the boys would make boys only clubs, (with the exception of me being allowed in to spy, because I would beat them up if they didn’t let me in. I know I was a mean little booger.)

I miss the cootie days at times. But it is so fun and such a blast seeing my son go through them. Boy, are times a’ changing.
