A Love Note...

Someone in our family got their very first love note today.  It read like this...

To Tory (and then a heart)
From ...... hint: count the dots that is how many letter are in my name

Dear Tory,
All the time I have look at you I know is something.  You probly gested I like you.  I don't care that you are a Uath Uet fan.  So what who care I don't thats a fact.  I culd like the Uets eneyway.  But it do's mater what fool ball teams wes like.  It maters the way we akt.  But no more writing.  I love like you

And that is the end of the note.  Obviously, this boy needs some help with spelling, but I like the fact that he is trying to overcome relationship hurdles early on.  Let's not beat around the bush - football doesn't matter to me, I just like looking at you.  He's a straight shooter and I admire that.  I also like that he wants to remain mysterious, because some girls find that attractive, but then tempts her with the dot hint as to his identity.  You can bet that I will be looking at the class list and counting letters in names.  I will then take the shortened list and volunteer to correct papers so as to compare handwriting samples.  I will go to these lengths because all of us are wondering who this mysterious boy is who would put his love like for my daughter above team sports.  He's a keeper.

That is so cute! I am sure there are many many boys who have crushes on Tory...but he is a brave soul to put it out there in writing.

I love you guys too- even if your Ute fans. It's hard, but I do.

Is it fourth grade we start to fall in love? Who can resist Torey anyway? She is definitely a sweetheart and way cute too! I love the note. It really does just matter how we act, not what team we like, but that part could steady the waters!!

I really like this kid... "But no more writing... I love like you" -as if to say "and that should be enough." for some reason I read it in Pepe LePew's voice. Very Suave.

That is so sweet. I remember Kinzie's first love letter, although this boy left his name, he wasnt' shy. Good luck finding this young man. He is a smart boy, liking our little bus.
