First Date Between 5-Year-Old Boy And His Best Friend Is Too Cute

A First Date To Remember

Freddie Gibson may only be 5 years old, but he's already a true gentleman. The little boy, who lives in the U.K., grew curious one night while watching his parents get ready for their date night. He decided he was ready to have his first date. And he knew just who to ask -- his very best friend, Dee Dee!

The Start Of A Beautiful Friendship

Freddie has literally known Dee Dee his entire life. Their moms became friends during a pre-natal class, and continued to get together after Freddie and Dee Dee were born. godupdates 5-year-old saves birthday money for first date 1 Credit: Caters News Agency The little ones became fast friends too!
"He always used to get excited when he saw her and would shout out her name, and it's just grown from there," explains Nina, Freddie's mom.

"Since they could talk, Freddie has been adamant that he and Dee Dee will grow up and get married - and she seems quite happy to go along with it," explains Dee Dee's mom, Katy. "They couldn't be more different, but they just click."

A Proper Invitation

"They've always had a special relationship - they've swapped Valentine's cards since they were toddlers, and since they learnt to write they're always swapping notes," Katy said.

In the meantime, Freddie saved up all of his own birthday money so that he could do this whole first date thing up right! He even bought a new wallet so he could keep the money safe. RELATED: This 6-year-old takes a very special lady on a date each month

She Said Yes!

The delighted Dee Dee looked forward to joining her friend at their favorite pizza joint. Her mom took her shopping for a new dress. The precious girl also donned a pretty flower headband and freshly painted nails. godupdates 5-year-old saves birthday money for first date 4 Credit: Caters News Agency The pint-sized Romeo bought flowers for his date, and the couple's families escorted them to their favorite pizza parlor.
"Freddie was very serious about the whole thing - it was so sweet, but also quite amusing to watch everyone's reactions to it," recalls Katy.

"They were like little grown-ups -- we kept a watchful eye from a distance, but they did the whole thing themselves," explains Nina.

The First Date Of Many?

All in all, it was a great time for everyone. Freddie's parents asked if he'd like to take Dee Dee out again. His suave reply was, "yes, because she's beautiful". As far as Freddie's concerned, he and Dee Dee are meant to be! godupdates 5-year-old saves birthday money for first date 7 Credit: Cater News Agency Despite his young age, Freddie already has a future mapped out for him and his beautiful best friend. According to Freddie, the two will marry once they grow up. They'll buy a house close to Dee Dee's grandparents. The sweet boy has even volunteered to do all of the ironing, as well as to change diapers once they have babies of their own. (Sounds like a keeper to me!) Only time will tell if God intends for these two to become husband and wife. But their first date is certainly a memory both of their families will cherish for a lifetime!
"Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the LORD." Proverbs 19:14

A Prayer to Have a Servant's Heart This Christmas - Your Daily Prayer - December 14

A willing heart sets forth a fire to see and experience Jesus, and as we know, God will use any willingness directed toward Him to grab a child of God's attention. He will use His people and all His creation to draw us nearer to Himself.
