Lessons From Hugging Random People at Walmart
Posted on 02.09.10 in Parenthood and there are 9 comments.
Yesterday I was at Walmart with my 2 year old boy. On aisle 11, he walked right up behind a woman and hugged her. After apologizing (although the huge smile on her face said she didn’t mind one little bit) and proceeding to the next aisle, I said, “Sweetie, you shouldn’t hug strangers.”
He said,"But Mama, some people don’t get hugs. So I give them.”
Who knew a 2 year old has so much to teach?

Your children are great. They are certainly wise beyond their years.

I always said God gave me children because I had lots to learn from them.
What a cutie!
