Growing so fast!

Yesterday evening I get a call from James asking if I knew someone named Brianna from Caleb's class. I thought that was an odd question, but he runs into so many people at work that I thought her mom and dad maybe came into the bank or something like that. I said that the name sounded familiar, but I didn't KNOW her. That is when he tells me that he had received TWO voice mail messages from this little girl for Caleb. I was a little shocked, so I asked Caleb if he knew a girl named Brianna. He runs into the kitchen and says that he does and that she is one of his BEST friends (first I ever heard about that one). I asked him if he gave her James' cell phone number and he said, "yes". At this point I'm still trying to wrap my brain around all of this and I look at my son and he is BLUSHING! I guess he 'likes' this girl, but we don't allow 'girlfriend/boyfriend' stuff at this point and he knows that so she is just a "friend". So he goes off and plays his playstation a little more and we wait for daddy to get home.
James gets home and plays the messages for Caleb and we are trying so hard not to laugh, but this little girl is telling James that she is a "nice little girl" and would he please have Caleb call her "as soon as you get this message". WHAT? They are in the first grade! I guess I was just caught way off guard. I told James....yeah, nice little girls don't call boys. HA HA! Really, it was very sweet and innocent. I'm just not ready for him to grow up just yet!
