I would beg him for one when he would not give it to me voluntarily and I would always welcome one, even if he wanted to kiss me with a mouth full of food!! I also love seeing how he snuggles into Ellen's shoulder when she picks him up - he has this dreamy look on his face and you just know he is just loving Ellen and being close to her. The bright eyes and squeals of joy are also totally yummy. He is such a warm and loving boy!!Aunt Judynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-34526696787430982722010-03-05T17:25:28.267-05:002010-03-05T17:25:28.267-05:00what a lovely post! thank you - needed that today...what a lovely post! thank you - needed that today!<br />KristenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-76961353554988853382010-03-05T11:57:16.983-05:002010-03-05T11:57:16.983-05:00There's only one rule to kisses in this house....There's only one rule to kisses in this house...the sloppier the better!!<br /><br />I get some kisses here, that would make any college girl jealous!Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00609629888008025050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-37575485679499494592010-03-05T10:28:48.041-05:002010-03-05T10:28:48.041-05:00Oh, Ellen!

I have a snuggle bunny, too. <br /><br />And although my Isaiah will probably never utter the words, "I love you, Mama", when he grabs the back of my neck , pulls me to his face, and gives me that special smile he saves just for me--there is no need for a single word.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479345204252020874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-49104370128623197622010-03-05T08:35:15.346-05:002010-03-05T08:35:15.346-05:00Such a sweet boy!

Noah in the must-be-touching-me-almost-always-stroking-my-hair variety and Addison in the let-me-sit-on-your-lap-especially-if-you-think-you're-busy variety. She gives the open mouth kiss with an occasional bite.

I'd add that as the mother of a child who can't kiss or squeal or use her arms to hug, well, it's also in the eyes and there's something so delicious about being able to hug and stroke my daughter despite the fact that she's almost fifteen years old!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-47257228640179220642010-03-05T00:56:52.856-05:002010-03-05T00:56:52.856-05:00Oh my goodness, this post made me cry.

It's been one of those emotional, difficult days being a mom for me (kids pooped on me, bit me, yelled at me, hit me, you know, CRAZINESS), and this just made me smile, tear up, appreciate motherhood in all of its messiness and sweet little moments. Thanks for reminding me about those sweet moments. xoxoSarah Jiohttp://www.sarahjio.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-90633373246191789002010-03-05T00:45:14.327-05:002010-03-05T00:45:14.327-05:00Because Tyler is non verbal and has decided that w...Because Tyler is non verbal and has decided that what he has learned to sign is not ever gonna come out of his mouth Dallas never hears dad.
