Since Carys started coming to our house after school she and Owen have become very good friends and as a result Brooklynn has become a bit jealous. She gives Carys a hard time about ‘loving’ Owen and Owen a hard time about ‘loving’ Carys. This is all fine and well as far as I’m concerned. Owen thinks she is wonderful and has flatly told her “you are my second best friend”. Gotta love the specifics, I have ranked you and you are number 2. But it wasn’t meant as hurtful and Carys, thankfully knows Owen and knows him well enough to recognize this as the genuine compliment that it was.
Yesterday Carys decided that she needed to get the bottom of the teasing that Brooklynn was sending her way and clear up any mixed messages. She pulled Owen aside and addressed the issue with a note. See note below:
I love that we as moms are tracking this relationship from the beginning. One day, if they end up together they will either love that we have done this or resent that we were so mettlesome. Oh well, you have to give them something to talk to their therapist about, right?
