Default 3 months old interacts with orchids

The other day, David was holding Robert in his arms, standing very close to
the window where many of my orchids are, and Robert reached out, grabbed a
stake, and held on to it. It just occurred to me that he is rather young to
be a stakeholder. :-)

Yesterday my biggest bench hog needed to be watered, and David was helping
me out with it. In order to get to it, he needed to move a few other
orchids, so being a good daddy, he put the flowerpots on the floor around
the little rug our son was lying on, in order to provide 3-months old
Robert with some mobiles. Robert immediately proceeded to bat at the
Phals' leaves which caused the flower spikes to sway. He was happy. So
David and I proceeded in watering the aforementioned benchhog.

Robert was suspiciously quiet. When we turned our attention back to him,
he had overturned one of the orchid pots in such a way that the flower
spike landed right in front of his mouth, and so he was happily chewing on
it. :-) Nothing happened to neither the baby nor the orchid.
