First Love

Hayden and I went to a new exercise class today. I plunked him down to play with a bunch of his toys next to a little girl. As soon as she eyed his horse, she started inching toward it. I worried about Hayden's reaction because I know about his somewhat unhealthy relationship with that horse. He watched her grab it, looked longingly at his beloved horse's butt, and then...like a little gentleman, he just let her play with it. Soon enough, he made that little lady so comfortable that they started to share the horse. Then, like all the ladies in his life, she really wanted to get close and snuggle with him. At this point, her mom got a little nervous and took her away. Hayden's rolling with the punches though. He's already forgotten all about her and looks a little relieved to get his horse back.
