Jesse’s First Time

Well, I’ve been fortunate a few times in my life to be someone’s “first” for one thing or another. Tonight was something I never expected.

(And it couldn’t have been more innocent so get your mind out of the gutter.)

Mark is down for my party tomorrow and he and Jesse went out to dinner then came by to help me with things. I was cooking and offered Jesse the spatula from the cheesecake to lick.

Much to my surprise, he told me it was the first time he had ever licked the bowl/spoon/spatula.

I was so surprised I mixed up something else, partially so Jesse could lick the bowl.

I had no idea I would ever get to be this “first” in someone’s life without giving birth. Life is full of surprises.
