On Saturday, we were at a restaurant having an early supper. They had an aquarium close to where we were sitting and because it was still relatively early for supper (i think it was like 4 pm), there weren't too many people there. Gemma was very fascinated by the fish and loved watching them and trying to touch them through the glass. We were sitting by close enough that we just watched her from our table.
eventually as the restaurant got busier, a little boy who seemed about 5 or 6, was at the aquarium banging the tank. Gemma watched him quietly and then joined him in the game of "fish slapping". Another younger boy, maybe about 3 or 4, came by and while the other boy ignored Gemma, this one tried to interact with her. He was patting her on the head, poking her cheeks, trying to lift her up, etc. It was funny though because she kinda ran away from this boy to the other boy, hugging him, almost trying to say "make him go away" or something. The older boy was completely freaked out by her hugging him and looked extremely uncomfortable. He was nice enough though that he didn't push her away or anything.
Boy, she really liked kids these days. She always wants to interact with other older kids. But really, when did I teach her that hugging random boys was okay????? LOL...
