Making Friends

Helmut and Serif have been noticing a lot more of each other lately. I'm not sure if it's the fact that Serif is beginning to have a little more presence through activity, eating cereal and finding his vocal chords or what but they show a lot more interest in each other. Serif will stare at Helmut a lot and will reach out to him. Helmut will come over and sniff Serif and just sort of check him out. It's been really cute. Jeff and I have both been surprised at how friendly Helmut is being to Serif. The older Helmut gets the grumpier and more sensitive he becomes, but he seems to put up with Serif pretty well so far. Helmut's been very gentle with him which is a wonderful thing.
