My son is now four years old. I have noticed over the last few months that anytime I introduce him to some one new he tells them, "Hi! I like you!" Remember the age when everyone was your friends simply because you had no reason to doubt them? I miss that innocence of childhood. I have to admit that I am still way over friendly. J complains that I will talk to any one for hours about nothing. It is a gift my Mother taught me.
My daughter, who will be two on Friday, is not so open to strangers. She likes her space free of extra bodies. Mostly so she has more room to dance. She is a rump shaker. We are trying to break her of her Lady Gaga addiction. She has an obsession with her. I see many recitals in my future. I danced when I was a teenager. Not well but I managed to keep up. My tiny dancer has more talent at 2 than I did at 14. It is a hard thing to admit but I will survive.
