making friends?

So, Asher doesn't quite know about personal space just yet. This was clear today in church when he kept trying to hug another 1 year old boy (who he'd never met before in his life). Things turned interesting when a 1 year old GIRL joined us in the foyer. Asher quickly decided to try hugging her instead. Then the other boy got jealous and tried to go for the girl as well. It was hilarious to watch them both go for the same innocent and bewildered girl. The boys were totally pushing each other out of the way. But luckily after some coaxing from me Asher backed off. (Luckily I can still get his attention with cheerios and juice.) It made me think, 'I wonder if when he's a teenager I will still be able to distract him from girls by giving him food.'

Girls and food. That's all boys think about and I guess it starts young!
