Apparently, there is a new tradition amongst high school kids, to ask their dates to accompany them to dances in an unique manner. Jumbo Joe and his girlfriend The Cute Girl, have been dating for some time and it was VERY much assumed they were already promised to attend the Homecoming Dance with each other... but that didn't stop Jumbo Joe from seeking out help to plan the perfect 'proposal'.
First: Little Tink hand wrote the invitation, in school colors (Green and White). Tink was VERY nuuuurvouuusss about giving The Cute Girl the option to say 'No'. (Tink must be concerned her big cousin is dating above his pay scale.)
Coco and I, then worked on creating the perfect envelope. (The picture is Coco's drawing of what The Cute Girl will look like in a fancy homecoming dress.)
I then pulled Coco out of Pre-K (Yes. You heard that correctly, I took my child out of school for a dance proposal...) She geared up with one white rose, decorated with a Sweet Shop Homecoming sucker.
With the help of a very game and excited principal and the permission of The Teacher, Coco made her way up the stairs and down the hall to The Cute Girl.
She entered the classroom (cute as can be)
And despite Tink's concerns...
She said YES!
And the classroom 'awed...' in unison.
Beyond adorable.
One thousand times cuter than my wedding proposal..
(And Coco was returned to school, after missing only 17 total minutes of learning. No worries.)
