Tristan and Hannah sitting in a tree...

I'm pretty sure I chaperoned Tristan's first date tonight! It started with an innocent "hi" at the jumping kangaroo lights after Hannah and Tristan laughed at the same part. I have to admit, when the kangaroo made of lights turns to look right at you it is quite funny. They both laughed, turned to look at each other, and were holding hands within seconds. Love at first sight! Hannah being an older girl of about seven, was not ready to move along as quickly as Tristan and so we parted ways and had a good chuckle about it.

We made our way to the Merry-go-round, which is a must for Tristan, and waited patiently in line with our ticket. We were deep in discussion about what animal he wanted to ride and how it MUST go up and down, when we heard, "There is your little friend." Right behind us in line was none other than Hannah! Tristan walked right up to her and held out his hand. The line started to move and hand in hand Tristan lead her to the Peacock bench seat so they could sit together... this was not prompted. I had nowhere else to be, so I sat with them. They made small talk about the ride and held hands along the way on a cool winters night. Perfect. We ran into Hannah a few more times on this zoo trip and all parents involved got a big kick out of it!
