Kisses

I've been thinking of kisses lately. Not so much of the ewww gross kinds but of the tender ones, special and unique. But NOW that I'm thinking about it there are quite a few different kinds. So, you can't talk about something unless you KNOW about it so I have done some research on kisses. These range from the simple but sweet kisses that are blown to the kisses that shouldn't be talked about...ANYWAY, I just love kisses. How sweet is it to get a butterfly kiss from a little one? When your cheeks get so close and you can feel them breathing. Then their little eye lashes intertwine with yours and suddenly your heart beat matches the batting of your eyelashes as the little one giggles and backs away. Or the tender eskimo kiss. This is one of my favorites, although very simple. Tiny noses rubbing back and forth, with a innocent little smile. But looking into their eyes you realize that you didn't need to see the smile because the evidence of their love is looking you straight in the eyes. Thinking about these kisses, I thought how wonderful would it be to actually get a letter signed with X's and O's like it seems to always happen in the movies or in songs. I guess the best kind of kiss is the kind of kiss I recieved today :-0 Yes I know you are ALL so interested now!!!! The little boy I work with was having a rough day. When I say rough, I mean he was crying all day and looking outside and running out of the room and everything that goes with being a little boy. So when 5:00 rolled around I was at the door and ready to leave!! But with him, I make sure I get down to his level so we're eye to eye. I tell him it was great playing with him and I can't wait til next time. I need to make sure that he knows that I am talking to him and then I expect a response. Well the normal response is bye with a nod and if I'm lucky he'll actually look at me when saying this. So today I grabbed his little hands and said," Bye Tyler, I can't wait to see you on Wednesday!" All the sudden before I know it he had puckered up and put a wet one right on my lips!!!!! He then said bye while looking me straight in the eyes! Talk about going from one extreme to the other! His mom thought it was so sweet but I was thinking "What the world have you been letting him watch???!!!!" But on the way home I got to thinking about it. I can only imagine him having a conversation in his head with himself. I am grateful for the little blessings like this that let me know that he does care and appreciate me being there. I LOVE KISSES!!!
