Today I took the kids to the park and then to the library for story time. We've been going to story time (almost) every week for about 10 months now. In the last 4 months or so, Ross has refused to sit in the stroller for this event. I've had to keep a close eye on him, though, because a couple of times I caught him bopping another child on the head. Now, this is my child who doesn't like to go to new people (seriously, he wails when we leave him in the nursery at church). Today, during story time, he took interest in a little girl who appeared to be about his age. She was playing with the velcro on her sandals, so I assumed that was where the interest stemmed from. He sat in front of her and watched her intently for a while. When it was time to leave and while I was rounding Reid up, Ross walked over to the little girl. I watched as he put his arm around her and gave her a hug. After a few seconds of this, he leaned over and gently planted a big wet kiss on her cheek. Now let's say it all together, "awwww".
As a side note: it appears the boys know how to be nice to other children. They, apparently, just don't know that they need to be nice to each other.
