I really enjoyed reading about everyone’s First Loves yesterday through Alex J. Cavanaugh’s blogfest. I don’t think my almost 12-yr-old Kaylee will say it’s ‘love’ yet–but today she’s been with her first boyfriend for 9 months *waits while everyone says the collective awwwwwwwww*. Now, of course her dad wasn’t thrilled when she said yes to her first boyfriend (a ‘check one’ note was passed in the hall, soooooo sweet, right?), but it’s all very innocent and they’ve known each other since first grade. Still, Dan struggles with being that father that has to intimidate their daughters boyfriends (if you’ve ever met my hubby, you know he’s one big goofball). He for sure doesn’t have that Rodney Atkins persona from that country song “Cleaning This Gun.” But he does have a secret weapon . . . the little sister! Please take the time to watch this hilarious 40 second video my 7-yr-old made warning Kaylee’s boyfriend, William. They get soooooooooo excited to see their views go up on You Tube & have dreams of Ellen having them on her show someday, lol.
*Also, very excited for almost 400 followers now:) Stay tunned . . . I’ll have another special treat for you when I reach that milestone! So please help spread the word~thanks & cyber hugs!!

Awesome video! William better watch out!
LOL. That’s a cute video. Your little one is a force to be reckoned with. I wouldn’t mess with her!
lol! How cute. Yeah, I don’t think the dads wanna EVER think of their little girls dating…ever. My 2 oldest sons have made that clear in no uncertain terms that my daughter may consider the prospect in her 30s. We’ll see 🙂
Oops, I joined in with the aaaaaaawes. That is so cute. My granddaughter has a boy at school who is constantly picking on her. Her dad said to punch him. (Where did I go wrong?) I’m still waiting for someone to tell her this little boy has a major crush. Guess that’s not what she wants to hear.
Great post, lovely blog, and beautiful family, Jamie. Thank you so much for visiting my blog.

Congratulations on almost four hundred! Glad you enjoyed the blogfest. It really brought back some memories. And never let the amount of comments on my blog scare you. I read and respond to each one because I appreciate anyone taking the time to come visit me.
Thanks, Alex. I hope to be a ninja one day like you:)
Your 7 year old is TERRIFYING! If I was William I’d watch out 🙂
That she is–takes after Mom:)
Ha, that is cute. My stepdaughter is 13 and no bfs yet, for which I am kinda grateful 🙂
Yes, count yourself lucky, although this has been a good experience–praise God:)
Yay for the almost 400 followers! And I am heading over to you tube to raise that number as we speak:)
Thanks, Deana!!!
