"Aww" Inspriring

The other morning, while searching for gift bags, I bonked my head really hard on the shelf in the closet. Of course my mini me was standing close-by and I was proud to keep it PG with a "son-of-a-gun!"

Heidi: Mama, what happened?

Me: I hit my head on the shelf.

Heidi: I kiss it? [Pauses] I can't reach!

I bend over and she plops a big ol' wet one right on my forehead. Just what I needed.

At dinner the other night: "Mama, you cooked a nice supper!"

[She didn't eat any of it, but at least the sentiment was there.]
