Puppy Love & Link Party Features

March 23, 2014 By Linda 6 Comments

There’s nothing like puppy love. And watching my daughter experience those feelings for the first time is both magical …

 

and frightening.

 

I want to cheer her on … listen to her stories from school … be her confidant. Well, one of her confidants. The one who’s been there, done that. The one who offers a voice of reason …

 

with a bit of caution mixed in.

 

Because I know all too well the sting of unrequited love. Though, I think her object of affection requites her back. At least that’s what the girls on the playground say …

 

For now, I smile. I listen. I give her at least a half-block of space if her object of affection walks her home from school.

 

How cute is that?

 

And if — or when — it comes to it, I’ll offer her a shoulder to cry on.

 

Sigh.

 

I’m really not looking forward to that …

 

My daughter’s puppy love isn’t the only thing growing this Spring. The link party last week was overflowing with puppy-love-inducing Spring ideas …

      Oh and I am a little stressed about my little guy and his first puppy love; right now he has a girl that is 20 he wants to marry; he’s 7, but when it gets real I don’t even want to think about it!

    Ok, straight up mom talk…. Those teen years with all that puppy love stuff, worse than any little bump on the head or cut on the knee. At least for mom.

    Thanks for featuring my Hello Spring Wreath. And reading your story about your daughter’s puppy love–my little girl is 5 and I already have anxiety about helping her through her first broken heart. Ugh! Good luck!
