Aidan Loves the Ladies...

...and God knows that the ladies love him. Aidan and I were playing at the playground Saturday evening, and he was wasting no time getting to know all the Korean girls that were playing down there. He ran right up to this group of 5 or 6 girls and joined them in the game they were playing. I don't think he really understood what they were playing, but he knew it involved running around and that's all he cared about.
They were playing some sort of "Red Light, Green Light" game. They all lined up at one edge of the playground, then one girl stood at the other side. The lone girl turned her back to the rest, said something in Korean, then turned back to face the other girls. Meanwhile, the rest of the girls would be running toward the solo girl, and stopping when she turned to face them. But the weird part was that when one of the girls got close to the "it" girl, she would turn around and hold her finger up to the running girl's nose when she stopped. She held it there for a while, then moved on to the next girl. Check out the picture:

Of course, Aidan is right there to officiate. He made a couple of close calls that the crowd didn't agree with, but I think overall he was even handed in his rulings.

Aidan and I spent a lot of time together hanging out this day because Jessica was off on an eleven hour shopping trip! I don't see how this is enjoyable. But, she seems to have a real great time with her friends. She'll have to tell about all the things she saw while she was out. That'll have to be another post, though.
