Must Be 18

I just did a ridiculously long post about Christmas, but I wanted to quickly write about something funny Luke said the other day. Out of the blue he asked me if when he was older he would be able to kiss girls. He is the most naive kid and has no clue about most things, so I was surprised. I questioned him a little to find out more, but he immediately clammed up. I told him yes but when he was much older, like 18. He promptly counted to 18 as if that was no big deal. A few days later I was wrapping presents and Luke was out in the garage with Jer. I turned on the TV and watched the end of that movie "You've Got Mail." Luke came back in right at the very end when Meg Ryan sees Tom Hanks and they're walking towards each other in the park. He was watching with interest, so I told him they were going to kiss. He just kept watching and I could see his wheels spinning and then he looked at me and said, "Hmm, must be 18."
