How to talk to girls....

Listening to Bob & Tom on the radio on my way into work this morning, they were talking about Alec Greven, a boy who wrote How to Talk to Girls when he was 8. It started as a school assignment and he's now on the author circuit promoting his book!!! It reminded me of Ben & Zachary at the basketball game on Friday night. There is a girl in their class who is the classic pretty girl who knows it-I dread to think what she's going o be like in a few years time as she's a piece of work even now. Ben has been gaga over her for quite a while and apparently he is not alone. Ben & Zachary were being very giggly over going to talk to her when she arrived at the game (in her leopard print furry vest, no less). At the end of the game, she walked up to Ben and said "Ben, you need to give me your Starburst, James has already given me his Skittles". Seriously, she's that manipulative at 7? These boys don't stand a chance at such a tender age, or any age for that matter. Maybe I'll buy them a copy of the book!!!!!
