Today on the way home from school we had a conversation that went like this.
Emma: Can I invite Jackie (neighborhood friend) to the movie with us on Friday?
Me: Sure if we see her outside.
Emma: I just LOVE Jackie!
Emma: Long pause clearly thinking
Emma: Well not the kissing kind of love, just you know, I mean I like her.
Me: Yes I understand I know what you mean. You love her as a friend and enjoy her company and playing with her.
Emma: Well Yeah I love that she has glasses and that she is older than me and I just really like her and have fun with her.
I thought this was such a cute conversation because it just shows once again that my baby is growing up and realizing that there are different kinds of love. She wanted to make absolutely sure that I didn't think she liked a girl in a different way. Love can be complicated.
