Cuz there were "nice" boys (boys who we'd hang out w/but never date) and boys who would "mow the lawn". Seeing that makes me realize how rude that sounds. It wasn't. It just meant that you'd let him come to your house & meet your parents, or something along those lines. I have two girls ages 6 & 3, I would say we are on the fringe of this emotional whiplash w/the 6yo. I can hardly wait. aem2–you just reminded me, my girlfriends & I used to “code” to indicate if a boy was crush/date worthy.

My friends had elaborate acronyms for our don't-you-DARE-call-them-crushes. I was huff-meisterin and flouncer-in-chief (with a few stomps thrown in for emphasis), and I had two older brothers who took much advantage of that. How smart of Chickie not to give the males in the family any more ammunition. I’m wiping the tears of laughter away — this brings back such memories.
