Evan's first kiss(es)

[xxmadsenxx]

I just had an interesting conversation with Evan while I was getting him ready for bed. Here's how that went:

Evan: Guess what, Dad?
Me: What, Ev?
Evan: Me and Isabella are getting serious.
Me: What do you mean you're getting serious?
Evan: Our relationship. It's getting serious.
Me: How is it getting serious?
Evan: We don't just hold hands and hug anymore and sometimes kiss on the cheek. Now we kiss.
Me: You kiss?
Evan: Yep. We kissed for the first time today. And then again at recess and then after school.
Me: (I was thinking "Oh God" haha) What kind of kiss?
Evan: A REAL kiss.
Me: What's a "real" kiss?
Evan: On the lips, duh. What do you think?
Me: Like a dry kiss? Or wet?  (I didn't know what to say lol. I didn't want to full on explain kissing with tongue or anything to my freaking six-year-old. I didn't think that's what he was doing, but I wanted to make sure. I don't think kids his age really know about that stuff, but I also don't think most of them "date" the same girl for a year lol. Not that French kissing is exactly "wet" (unless you kiss a sloppy kisser...then it sure can be)...I don't know, I couldn't think of a better term and I had no idea what to say. Semi-wet? Wet-ish? I don't fucking know. I wasn't going to say "Did she stick her tongue in your mouth/did you stick your tongue in her mouth?" because I would have felt really weird, and I didn't want to give him ideas if that wasn't what happened lol. Plus the "wet/dry" thing is what my mom asked me when I told her that a neighbor girl who was a year older kissed me in like first grade lol. When in doubt, I do what my mom did haha.)
Evan: Why would it be wet? She's not a dog. Not all slobbery.
Me: Ok, just making sure.
Evan: You're weird sometimes.
Me: I know.

Man, that kid...
