On my way into work today, KB and I had a different kind of discussion. We usually have a heart to heart talks, but I wasn’t ready for this talk. He asked me, “Mommie what would you say if I gave Syd a promise ring?” I had to gaze out of the window and catch my breath for a second before I replied, “WHAT, like promise to marry? He shook his head and said, “I think so.” Trying to lighten the situation, I said, “You can get one out of the bubble gum machine.” I then told him, “Maybe you could give her the one your dad gave me when I was in high school.” We both chuckled and I quickly changed the conversation.
When I got
to my desk, my mind started racing. Reasons
being, I have an unsettling feeling about this particular girl and is my son
really ready to promise marriage to “one” girl right now?
