first date???
Tonight my first-born daughter was asked on her very first date.
Wow.
I am so happy for her to have this experience and to see her blossoming in many ways, but wow, am I unprepared for this. I knew she had turned 16 and I knew she could now be asked out for a date, I just didn’t think it would happen anytime soon. I thought I had a while to wrap my mind around this idea.
Also, this creative asking out thing is new to me. When I was dating you simply asked someone out, you didn’t have to send them on a scavenger hunt, or decorate their room, or kidnap them, or send them a hidden message in a popcorn ball. Now she needs to come up with a creative way to answer. Fun stuff going on at our house.
I'm Tracy, a mama with big dreams, crazy ideas, loads of laughter, an insatiable desire to learn, and enormous piles of laundry.
Wow! Can’t believe she’s really 16, either. How fun. Is this for a school dance? Who asked her?
She was asked to the Homecoming Dance by a nice young man from the local high school.
Ahhhh, crazy, isn’t it???
Yay! So fun! The creative asking is usually just for dances, not normal casual group dates.
