Last night Matt and I took the kids out to dinner for our Valentine's Day dinner, a little early. It was the first time we took both boys out to eat alone. It really went well, until Nathan started to lose it right before we got the bill.
The best part happened as we left the restaurant. I was holding Patrick's hand to walk him out when he saw a little girl waiting up at the front. She was somewhere between about 18 months and 2 years old (and a little bigger than Patrick). When they saw each other, they both started walking fast to get to each other. The little girl's mom held her back a little, but when Patrick got up near her, he made a beeline for her. He got up so close it looked like he was going to give her a hug or kiss her or something (he doesn't even kiss us, so that would have been crazy). Instead it just looked like he whispered something in her ear. Both of us moms watched in awe as these two kids got acquainted in those few seconds.
When Patrick pulled back from her, I started leading him the rest of the way out of the door. The little girl insisted on following. She screamed when her mom picked her up, keeping her from leaving with Patrick.
So it seems that Patrick is quite the stud. In the matter of seconds and a few whispered words in an ear, he can get the girls to chase after him. I would pay money to know what exactly exchanged between the two of them in those few seconds. Did Patrick whisper the perfect pick-up line? Anyone want to take a guess as to what pick-up lines toddlers use on each other?

Grandpa will be proud! I wouldn't want to try to guess what Patrick could have said to have such an effect. It probably wasn't WHAT he said as much as the way he said it. He is a little flirt! Cute story!
