Mack Daddy J$ in the house

While I lounged and the kids dug a moat on the beach yesterday, a little girl walked up to Jack and started showing him the fish on her bathing suit.  Faster than I could think, "Brazen blonde baggage!" she hugged him and ran off.

Me:  *eyes agoggle, shocked into silence*

Natalie:  "That girl is my friend, Mama."

Jack:  "No she's not!"  *sigh*  "Know what I am?"

Me:  "What, buddy?"

Jack:  *deeper sigh*  "In love.  Of course, I say that about all the pretty girls."

Hell's bells, this is starting so much younger than I expected!  We won't even get into his superficial criteria for his love connections. Plenty of time for him to figure out that smart and kind trumps pretty any day of the week.
