Working the room...

Have you ever seen a person who enters the room and immediately starts making the rounds? They tend to take the time to see every individual at least once and spend a little time with each of them? They make friends everywhere they go and the word stranger is not part of their vocabulary? They never met a person they didn't like?

This is Little Man. The second he enters a roomful of people, whether he knows them or not, his face lights up like a Christmas tree. He gets the biggest grin on his face. And he literally makes the rounds! He is passed from one person to another for the entire time that we are there. I'm lucky if I get him back long enough to feed him. He is so cheerful and happy that everyone wants a turn -- even people who are not ordinarily "baby people."

Four months old and he already knows how to work the room! He instinctively knows how to schmooze with the best of them. Think he might be a politician when he grows up? (I certainly hope not!) He has the sweetest temperment. I feel so lucky in that.
