Blossoming Friendship

Recently Titus and Adelaide have become more aware of each other.  For the longest time they didn’t interact much. Occasionally they would make eye contact and smile at each other and possibly babble for a moment.  Now they are fully aware that they have a built in playmate. Where one goes, the other follows. What one baby plays with, the other wants also. It is so neat to see the bond growing between them.



Of course being babies, neither Titus nor Adelaide understand personal space. Sometimes “playmate” translates into “plaything”. There are many times in a day that I have to stop one of them from pinching, biting, or pulling on the other’s face, head, or limb.



“Playmate” can also mean “partner in crime.” Once again, where one goes, the other follows. They don’t always lead each other into trouble sometimes it is just into things that are messy, such as: pulling all the shoes off the shoe rack, taking clean laundry out of the baskets, and dumping every toy basket on the floor.  I am sure as they get older the crimes will become bigger and more elaborate.



It is exciting to see the friendship growing between Titus and Adelaide. I am sure they will be best buds growing up.
