When I picked up K from preschool today his teacher told me she would like to tell me something. She asked K to go get his lunch box, so he did not hear our conversation. My heart started beating so fast.....what did she need to tell me.....of course I start thinking negatively...and I started thinking something bad happened. No. She told me she asked K to walk away because she thought it would embarrass him. She said she over heard K speaking to Ava ( one of his friends at school). He said, " I'll be your Super Hero Ava!", as he protected her from the other kids. His teacher went on to tell me that I should be very proud, and that K is a very nice young man, and will make a woman very happy one day!
My heart just crumbled.
He had told me the day before that he was protecting a girl from some other kids at school. And that he was pretending to be a super hero to scare the other kids off. After speaking to his teacher, I asked him about Ava on the drive home. He told me, he was protecting her again today. In his own words:
" Don't worry Ava, I got this! I'll be your Super Hero!"
He's melting his Mama's heart.......
