They don't care if they've just met. Toddlers just start talking, and playing. They even fight like they've known each other forever. But then they make up and move on. They play together despite a possible age gap, difference in skin colour, or being the opposite sex.
Often they don't even notice there's a difference.
Today, we had a playdate with a friend from church and her two little girls. (The oldest one is the same age as Madison while the youngest one has just been born - which is why she's not in the picture.) And although Chiara and Madison only see each other once a week, you'd think they were the best of friends.
As we grow up, we make things so much more complicated.
What do you think?
Alesia and Keira make friends all over the world like that. Now I am sure that they see each country we visit as just another place to make new friends!
ReplyDeleteso you want to have friendships involving sqealing, running around like crazy and the odd biting incident!!! haha!!! Do you really want friendships like little people?? I wish adult life was as uncomplicated as a childs!!
ReplyDeleteI agree Michelle. Madison makes friends and I think living in another country and working cross-culturally certainly has helped.
ReplyDeleteAlmost nothing scares him!
