Why all the boys, Zoe?
Zoe, whose very first bestie was a boy, still seems to have more boy friends than girl ones. (I practically melted when she ran across the playground to give a good-bye hug to one of her newest close friends, another Zach, at pick-up yesterday.) Curious why this is, I asked Zoe a series of questions last night (e.g. “Do you like the games boys play better?”) and got few answers. Wondering if perhaps she has crushes on these little guys (she does plan to marry Leo, after all), I asked her if she thought any of her friends were “cute.” She said she did and then  commented that her teacher, Mr. Ferris, was cute. “And you know what else is really cute?” she asked me. “Babies.”
(And so, the mystery remains.)
