Where does he get all that energy?

Heartbreak x2

Little Romeo is at it again. Keep in mind, he's only 10yrs old:

Dear Andi,

The pain has doubled so since you said no. Words are something that you can never take back, but some things can be forgiven. No one can heal the wound but you. Oh how I wish you would say yes. But a wish is just a dream. If only dreams could come true. Now I know why you said no but why does age make such a big difference. I wish their was a way you would say yes.

Love,
XXXXX

Here is the response:

XXXXX-

It's not just about age. I'm sorry that you're hurting, but please stop.

Andi

Our Little Heartbreaker

Here's a typewritten "note" our daughter just received from a younger, 10-year-old neighborhood boy, delivered via our oldest son. His name has been omitted to protect the "innocent."

"Dear Andi,

I know that I like you, and I know that I should have told you earlier, but I want to ask you if you will be my girlfriend. Everyday that I have waited to tell you a hole inside of me has grown bigger. The hole is depression. Depressioin is a side effect of liking someone, and that someone is you. I am still very sorry for not telling you earlier.

Love,
XXXXX"

Oh boy...

And here is her response (also typewritten):

"Dear XXXXX,

I am sorry that you are depressed.
Don't be.
You are nice, but I am too old for you and I am not interested in having anyone for a boyfriend.
Sorry.

Your friend,
Andi"
