(Voiced by 7 month old Jack-Evan, Typed by Mommy)

Tonight my mommy told me that her and daddy were going on this thing called a date.
It sounded scary so I grabbed mommy’s necklace so she couldn’t get away.
She had never been away from me, so I wasn’t sure she could handle it.
Mommy knew I was worried though, and explained to me what a date is.
Let me tell all of you so you can know too.

You see, when two people love each other, they get married.
After a while they suddenly realize they no longer spend as much
time together anymore. At least, that’s what she said.
I’m don’t really believe that part because I’m with mommy all the time and we
see my daddy quite often. Adults are very confusing!
And as mommy continued to explain to me what a date was, I became even
more convinced that adults are confusing.

Mommy said that people get dressed up when they go on dates.
I thought my mommy looked just fine in her sweatpants and tshirt?

Next, you drive with your date to a restaraunt.
I wanted to ask why was it a special thing to eat? We eat every day.
(But I kept my mouth shut)

Then, the man holds the door open for the lady…

…and pays for dinner.
Again, I wanted to ask mommy why was this special.
Isn’t daddy’s money her money already?

After ordering a little coffee to go with your creamer…

You pig out daintily munch on your meal while talking with your honey.
(Mommy said women daintily munch on food while on dates, but I’ve seen
mommy eat and I know she’s not dainty…)

After the meal, you are supposed to talk about everything, nothing, and a little
in between as long as the subject doesn’t revolve around home and children.
(HA! I happen to know mommy called Grammy at least 2 times to check on me)

After this thing called “a date” is over, you are refreshed and in love all over again.
At least…that’s what my mommy said.
I don’t know if I’m ready for dates yet…but…

I am glad they came back home to me!
THE END
