Ooooh, it's a lady.

Michael has been funny the past couple of days. On Thursday, a national holiday, we went to an Italian restaurant (no chicken fried steak) and had a nice lunch. Michael always likes to look at people but this time in particular he stared at a girl in her 20's for ten minutes and smiled and laughed at her. He never likes anyone, but it seems he has already found his dreamgirl.

Today, he did it again at a cafe while Phuong was shopping for some jeans. I went to the cafe because the stores are really tiny and there was another 20 something girl and Michael is just sitting there looking at her with a big grin on his face. Then he did it again on the bus. Usually he looks at people with a "who the heck are you" expression on his face, but he seems to have found a soft spot for young ladies.


This morning he also had his second get hurt and cry a bit later moment. He was trying to get something on our wood kitchen table or maybe eat the table who knows, but he accelerated towards the table a little too quickly and mashed his upper lip into it. He looked around for a minute and then started bawling. Phuong hugged him, he realized everything was fine and immediately resumed reaching for whatever it was he was trying to get earlier.
