Gage: The standard by which all others will be measured.

So, I've mentioned, "M."

The girlfriend.
The uber-cute, bossy girlfriend.
I heart M.
And so does Gage.

Gage has set the bar, and he's set it quite high.
Why, what am I referencing?
The standard for gift-gifting.
All of M's future boyfriends shall be measured by this standard.
What does any 4 year old blonde haired cutie need?
Jewelry, of course.

He narrowed his selection down to 3 options from the James Avery catalog.
What would it be?
The little silver hearts? The butterflies? The little bitty flowers?

When we went to Northpark today to buy her gift, he made his choice: the flowers. This way she gets jewelry, and flowers that will never wilt. {okay, he didn't provide that logic for his selection---I did. But I'm sure it's what he was thinking, right? I mean---it just makes sense.}

And he chose earrings very similar to these:

Very cute!

And really----what little girl WOULDN'T love earrings for Christmas?
{yes, her ears are pierced!}
