Sam and Mom. An unbelievably joyful and loving pair. Check these out:

Sonja dropped the boy off with grandpa in Central Park today, for their weekly adventure, and headed for work (but not before a good Central Park food play time).
Then it was off with grandpa on a three mile stroll through the amazing man-made 'nature preserve' that is Central Park. In one week it will be 150 years old, and the whole family will be there for the festivities.
While Sam slept and grandpa lugged (with the sweetest of pleasure), the team ended at the Guggenheim where Sam awoke to some pretty damn fine art. This kid has a good eye. He examined everything he saw, and let his grandpa know if he wanted more time with a particular picture or was ready to move on. His two favorite pictures were a nice Picasso and an impressive Rothko. While Sam was looking at the Picasso, and reaching for it- stretching out his hand in an attempt to touch it, to hold it, to make it part of himself- a young man politely asked if he could take his picture. Sam was ok with this and the photographer got a nice photo of a beautiful 10 month old reaching in delight for a Picasso.
While walking back Sam was approached by another photographer asking permission to take photos. It's getting hard to walk anywhere with Sam these days. You have to double the estimated time it will take you to walk from Point A to Point B because he has a tendency to stop traffic wherever he goes (pedestrian traffic...). People simply stop, Sam smiles at them (well over 80% of the time), and they exclaim how stunning he is. It's not even his looks. It's his presence, his natural charisma. This boy has the big IT.
