There’s a kiddo staying with us. His name is Alex. He is two. Just starting to form sentences.
I was playing with him and his mom comes up. “Did you make a new best friend?” she asked.
“This is Mel.” he said. Only it was in two-year-old-ese so it was more like “This Mayol.”
Crazy how kids can set the world right just by knowing your name. I exist, and what’s more, Alex knows my name and likes to play with me. Whoa.
