An 8-year-old's Tip to Making Friends

At the wedding last weekend, there were two little boys, about eight years old.  They were meeting each other for the first time. Their dads were like, "Hey, have you guys met?  This is Jack*."  And, "This is Charlie*."  The boys shouted their "Hi's"and then one asked the other, "Do you like trucks??"  "Yeah!"  "Do you like monster trucks??"  "Yeah!"  And that was it.  They were friends.  Later seen boogying on the dance floor.

Don't you miss that simplicity??  I think from now on when I meet new people I'll start with, "Do you like wine?  Me too!"  And that will be it.  New friends, destined to tear up a dance floor.

(*not their real names. Because I can't remember them.)

Happy Friday, Everyone!  Enjoy the long weekend!  Any fun plans??  We're headed for a hike later this afternoon to kick things off.  There's talk about going to the beach and maybe even hitting up the museum.  And, of course, throwing some things on the grill.  Hope you all have a great one...and maybe even make a new friend or two!

Three Months Old yesterday!  Time is flying!
