New Target Friend

First of all, let me apologize for not keeping up with this blog very well :(  I will try much harder in the future - I promise!

I took Malachi to Target this morning.  We were in search of some toddler bedding and a pillow for the big boy!  Malachi is generally very friendly and will speak to almost anyone who looks at him (and some who do not).  I was pushing the cart down the main aisle near the bedding section when Malachi began talking to an older gentleman as he walked past us.  He told him a "story" about riding a horse and falling down and bumping his head (I have no idea where this came from).  This man was so taken with Malachi - he stood in the aisle for a good 5 minutes and interacted with Malachi like he was his grandchild.  It was too sweet.  He shook Malachi's hand and even rubbed his back - telling Malachi that he was such a good little boy, a blessing even!  He introduced himself as Daryl.  We finally said our goodbyes.  A few minutes later, Malachi said "Where's Uncle Daryl?"  I just had to laugh -- and a little while later we ran into Daryl again.  This time he had his wife with him.  Daryl introduced Malachi to his wife - saying "This is the little boy I was telling you about.  Isn't he just precious?"  Malachi thought that Daryl's wife (her name is escaping me) looked like Nana :)
