yeah.

So, last night I took Beanie to a meeting at SRD, and then shot over to Safeway Alhambra for some dindin.

We literally got chased down by a 10 year old kid and his mom (because the kid wanted his mom to see the pretty baby, which was weird as shit), and the fish market guy forgot what I had asked him twice because he was flirting with my kid (who is a HUUUUUGE flirt), and some Latina Granny started making googoo eyes and kissing my beanie when I was getting corn out of the freezer. Beanie went along with it until she blessed her, crossed herself, and said "you grow up to be a good girl." Beanie looked like IF she was going to grow up, it was NOT because she was going to be nice.

Here here, Beanie. You will probably have to do a little kung fu on someone in the future. Until then, stay adorable. Apparently, mine is not the only life you make nicer just by being yourself.

It always throws me for a loop when strangers caress my kid. I think she's totally squeezable, and I know I have a hard time keeping from pinching cheeks and kissing foreheads left and right when my friends' kids come a-calling, but I can usually restrain myself. I think my kid is secretly daring new people to engage with her in semi-physical ways.

I'm gonna have to keep my eye on her forever, aren't I?
