I am updating and backdating some of the little snippets that I have found on my computer. This little conversation happened one evening as we dropped his babysitter, Ava, off from an evening spent in Ste-Foy.

When I see a girl it makes my cheeks bloom

What does that mean, bloom?

It means it makes my cheeks turn different colors.

Huh. Why do you think that happens?

Because I like girls so much, it makes my cheeks bloom. it means I'm so so so so happy.

Because you like them so much?

Yeah. When I see a girl, and I like girls so much, it makes my cheeks bloom because maybe when we're adults, and if we see each other again, maybe we can make a baby together. So my cheeks bloom.

All girls?

All girls except my Mama.
