Hugs & Kisses

My favorite part of this age... hugs & kisses. Gulliver has learned how to give us hugs and kisses and it's just THE BEST!!! Sometimes I'll say, "Gulliver, can I have a kiss?" And he shakes his head no. Then I'll say, "Can I have a hug?" And he reaches out, puts his arms around my neck, and lays his head on my shoulder.

Other times I'll say "Can I have a kiss?" and he puts his face out toward mine, puckers up or opens his mouth, and I kiss him. Then he just giggles.

The other thing I just love, love, love is when we walk outside. Gulliver will be about 10 feet away from me. I'll squat down, hold out my arms, and say, "Gulliver, can I have a hug?" and he quickly walks toward me, puts out his arms, and lands on me with a huge embrace.

Ahhhh, now if I could just figure out how to bottle that feeling and savor it forever!
