I was standing at the sink doing dishes. The toddler runs up, grabs my leg and shouts, “Mom! Ideedit gug!”
“Oh,” I said, using my amazing Mom/Toddler translation skills, “You need a hug?” I bent down and put my arms around that warm little body, with a “mmm” and a squish. Then I stood up.
“‘Tank you, Mommy!” he said, “Mmwah!”. Then he ran away.

:) Can’t beat it.

It’s one of those moments you never forget.

I’d just finished writing the blurb for Dog-Gone But Not Forgotten, and I got my first review!

My toddler ran over, coughed, looked surprised– and threw up on my laptop.

I hope it’s not an omen.
