Who wouldn't want to kiss that face?

Smiling on command is Oliver's newest trick.

Last night we had very mild weather so the three of us went for a walk.  As we were getting close to home again, we let Oliver out of the wagon so he could run along the sidewalk.  He was having so much fun.

[points] Uh. Uh.  "Yes honey, that is a rock"

[points] Uh. Uh.  "Oh, do you see a bird?"

And so on. And so on.

Then we came to a yard with a chain link fence with three little kids.  When they saw us coming they ran up to the fence to say hi.  I think they were about 5, 4 and 2 1/2-- the youngest one was a girl.

Oliver went right up to them to say hi.  He liked the little girl, she had a puffy pink coat and braids with barets it her hair. 

Before I knew it, he walked right up to her and kissed her through the fence.  Her emphatic response? "I love you baby!"

I about died. 

Apparently we are kissing strange girls we meet on the street. 

I guess there could be worse things!

What a heartbreaker.
