Kid-a-phobic

Luke seems to have developed a fear of other kids. Even ones he knows! If another kid enters the room (or comes to the playground for that matter) he will cling to my leg or try to crawl into my lap. Sometimes he cries if he's really unsure of the kid and other times he just says "It's okay". Which is what I tell him when he gets scared. Hopefully this phase will pass, but for now it doesn't make for very functional play dates!
