Hugs

I just got a big hug from Maxx.

Me: Maxx, I love your hugs. Will you always give me nice, big hugs?
Maxx: Uh huh.
Me: Even when you're a big kid?
Maxx: Yes.
Me: Even when you're a grown up, like Daddy?
Maxx: (as he's walking away) Yes. ...if you are still alive when I am growed up.

Origins

When Kyla first started really talking, when there was an unexpected noise, she would say, in a grunting low voice, "Herre dat?" It became our own little family saying. As she got more sophisticated (at 2 1/2) she would often follow it with, "I herre son-sing!"

And since then she has just gotten more and more funny. She keeps us on our toes and rolling on the floor!

Our little guy, Maxx, is now starting to talk. Although at this point he mostly conveys his mischievous nature through his sideways glances and impish smiles, soon enough he will be chiming in with his own words of wit-dom. I'm excited (and a little scared) to see how he surprises us!
