Please Carry Me

Ever since we can remember, Joshua has said to us, "Hold you?" whenever he wants us to hold him, presumably because he heard us asking him once, "Do you want me to hold you?" But today, for the first time, when we were out and I asked him if he wanted to walk or for me to hold him, he said, "Please carry me."

We went to the Children's Museum today and he had a good time in the Japanese House, making pretend sushi for everyone. Afterwards, we went to Chinatown and had dim sum--Joshua was only interested in eating siu mai today. The ladies pushing the dim sum carts thought Joshua was so cute; one even put a red dim sum stamp on his hand. Joshua tried using real chopsticks--but by stabbing the dim sum simulataneously with chopsticks in each hand.

We went on our monthly outing to the housing projects to play with kids, and Joshua really showed his development into a sociable host--he says hello to every random person he meets.
