Jaden's "friend"

I took Jaden with me to a co-op seminar. The seminar was 3 hours long, so I brought a spiral notebook for each of us and pens. The seminar wasn't all that it could be, but that is another story. There were 2 classes, and in between each class, we had a small break. During the break, this boy came up to Jaden and started teasing her. This went on for the whole break. Jaden didn't seem disturbed by it, so I just left them alone.
Once it was time for the next class to start we sat back down in our seats. It was then that I noticed the boy and his family were sitting behind us (so he was probably back there watching Jaden the whole time)... Jaden & the boy (who I later learned is named Aaron) reached over the chairs to whisper quietly to each other. Then, Jaden took her spiral notebook over to where he was sitting so that they could both draw quietly. They were having fun talking and drawing (Aaron's sister joined in the fun, too). At the end of the class, Jaden came up to me with her notebook and said,"Mommy, someone's is playing a trick on us!" She pointed to a heart that Aaron had drawn with his and her name inside. When he saw her show me the spiral, he was embarrassed and angry. I wasn't upset, but it did take me by surprise.
I remember having a best friend when I was in kindergarten, and we walked home together. My best friend at that time was a boy, so I know it is not so unusual. Jaden just gives everyone an equal opportunity to be her friend. It is actually very sweet.
Too bad she may never see Aaron again. His family is not part of the co-op, and they live in a city about 20 miles away. I am not sure if they will make it to any future activities. I guess Aaron's heart will be broken! LOL!!!
