Valentines Box...maybe we got carried away?

What started out as a typical 5th grade school project to decorate a box for Valentines grew into something else. Our Son didn't want to do the typical shoe box thing. He saw a stack of pieces of plywood and molding in the garage and asked if I would help him build a teasure chest.

Maybe he figuered that if he had a killer Valentines box the girls might throw some extra sugar!

After a tutorial on the compound miter saw and nail gun, here is what we built...

He does well with the girls - they all seem to really like him. Seems like at least once a week a 10 year old girl will stop me in the store or where ever and say "Aren't you Max Holloway's dad?" "Ya, what did he do?"

There is one girl in our neighborhood who has an older sis that has gone through to the finals twice for Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader try-outs. Big sis is a Stars Ice Girl now but will try again next year to don the white shorts. Little sister is very fond of him, crushing big time. He sorta likes her. I told him to be nice to her because someday lil sis is gonna look like big sis (or better) and she will remember!

He has shared with me his 'wisdom' as far as girls go.

"Dad, girls like guys that aren't mean to them, listen to them, don't talk allot but be funny when you do talk to them, play sports and a musical instrument. You have to be nice to their friends too Dad cuz all girls do is talk to each other about boys and if your mean to one of them they all get pissed off."

As for the sex stuff, he understands the mechanics and chemistry parts but hasn't zero'd in on how it would actually relate to a pleasure center yet. He did ask me last week if during sex could your penis get stuck in the girls vagina? Keeping lube jokes out of it I told him that if a girl had a vagina that was that strong you might want never to let her out of your sight! Actually I told him that it would happen with dogs sometimes, with people no.

Your son has everything right.... EXCEPT... for the part where girls like guys that arent mean to them.. from personal experience i found out that if youre to nice they dont like you anymore.... so be nice but not to nice.. but dont be a A-hole to women.. cuz they really do remember and you dont want to burn any bridges.. espcially if they become really hot later on in the years....

and tell him that whatever he does.... DO NOT GIVE A GIRL ONE OF THESE..... (not sure if you can see but its the "SHOCKER") LOL...
