So yesterday we decided to venture out a little and went to Once Upon a Child - a gently used clothing store for children. Being that Asha doesn't have a lot of hair (poor girl), we wanted to go and buy some hair clips that would work well in the little bit of hair that she does have.
Asha had been taking a few steps here and there but we were completely amazed in the store. It was like she all of a sudden figured out how to walk and to walk strong. And once she mastered the whole walking thing she was everywhere...in the books, playing with the toys, grabbing out shoes. So many people asked us how old she was because their children were 16 to 20 months and were just walking now - it made us feel so proud.
But the saddest thing of all, or I guess you could say funny thing, was that she went up to one little baby who was sitting in her stroller and she pulled out her soother. The little girl looked bothered and I put it back in her mouth for her but Asha then quickly snatched it out again and she started to bawl. After that baby left, Asha saw another little girl sitting in another stroller and she went up to see her but instead of waving or touching her, she poked her dead centre in the eye ball. And what happened? The little girl started screaming! That was two injuries in a span of three minutes and we left the store with Asha having absolutely NO FRIENDS!

I guess you could say I'm feeling a little sleepy because making enemies really tires ya out!
