Girls, Boys and Mudpies

Authors Note: This is a true story. At my school, we have Group 1 (kindergarten) buddies. Pls comment, I'm thinking about sending it to Stone Soup.

“Eat your mud pie!” My kindergarten buddy, Loulou, shouted at me. I picked up our creation, mud carefully slapped into a blue, plastic plate.
“Fine” I said. I pretended to lap it up like a hungry dog.” See,” I told her. “Done.”
No-uh! Loulou said. She shook her blond hair around.
“I know you didn’t actually eat it.’ She said it in a way that made we want to pat her on the head.
All around 5, 6 year olds and us played happily, showing us the ways of the kindergarten yard. Loulou and me played in the sandbox.
A particularly small group 1-er walked up to us. His name was Ethan. Ethan plopped down beside us along with his buddy, Jackson. His head seemed small enough to squash.
“What are you doing?” Ethan asked, in signature little kid voice.
“Making mud pies”
“You're supposed to eat them,” Loulou said, exasperated. “But she doesn’t know how.”
A long silence passed over us. The sky got darker.
“So….” I said. “What do you like to do, Ethan?
“I like to play video games.” He said in that little kid voice again. My heart sunk.
“Like what?” Jackson said.
“Halo 3,” He said, “and Blood Omen” I looked at him strangely. I’d probably not be allowed to play those games.
“Aren’t those a little violent?”
“Well” He said, with an air of superiority. “Boys like violence.”
What an odd little boy, I thought. Then, curiosity struck.
“Then what do girls like?”
“Flowers,” He said, with the same know-it-all voice. “And butterflies”.
I looked over at Loulou. That definitely wasn’t my impression on girls. Her face was in a cross between a pout, a frown, and an angry face. My heart glowed.
“Is that all girls like, Loulou?”
“NO.” Little girl power! My heart beat proudly, no shame.

I walked up to Blockbuster. Just before I opened the door, I saw a sign.

Halo 3, it said, in big BUY ME print.
Buy it next month.
