Broken Heart

Our oldest son who is in the 4th grade recently experienced his 1st broken heart. He had this little “girlfriend” who he was just crazy about. He bought her a little Valentine and everything. It bothered me a little bit, but I tried to convince myself that it was normal puppy love and a phase that would quickly pass (so I hoped). I knew it was part of growing up so I didn’t make a big deal over it when he would talk about his little friend “girlfriend”.

Well a few weeks ago he came in the house with his head hung down. His little friend “girlfriend” had moved on. She did not like him anymore. He was CRUSHED, I was smiling on the inside (glad it was finally over) but a little sad on the outside because my baby had his heart broken, and I knew that this was just the 1st of many to come in his little life. I can’t protect him from everything, but I will surely try to be there to dust him off.
