So, Ransom -3.5 yrs. old mind you- apparently shared his 1st ever open mouth kiss with a hot little tamale named Viv, pictured together below. Viv’s parents are good friends of ours. Ran & Viv have been thick as thieves since they were born –only two weeks apart.
Anyway, Dave & I didn’t witness it, so the story goes like this. Ran & Viv were dancing it up at the reception while Dave & I were mingling with some other wedding guests. At some point while Ran & Viv were dancing one suggested to the other that they kiss (we think it was Viv) and then Viv’s older sister (6 yrs. old) proceeded to hold their heads together.
I guess a few people thought it was cute to watch a couple of three year olds, “making out,” so a few people watched & giggled. At which point Viv’s daddy stepped in. He told us he went over to them & said firmly something along the lines of, only married people have long open-mouthed kisses. Since you two are not married you should kiss each other on the cheek. Viv’s Mommy thinks they were perhaps imitating the bride & groom who were of course kissing all night.
In any case, we all got a good laugh out of it, arguing over whose child was more forward. 😉
Anyway, Dave & I had a really great time on our 2.5 day vacay in the Saugatuck area. Dave performed the wedding & it was beautiful, siiting n a cliff overlooking Lake Michigan.
