The sweetest kiss

On one morning this week, I heard the pitter patter of little feet coming down the hallway to our bedroom. I knew who it was. It was my almost 3-year old boy coming to make me start my day. It couldn’t be morning already.

I glanced at the time… 6.15AM!!! An hour early before our supposedly official start to the day. So I shut my eyes tight and laid there as still as I could. Hopefully my son would get the hint and creep back to his own room.

After a moment, I heard his tiny footsteps next to my bed. I felt a soft nuzzle against my face and a little kiss planted on my cheek. Then the pitter-pattering little feet tiptoed out again. That was all he simply came in to do.

I laid there completely stunned and swept off my feet.

That day I learnt that the sweetest kisses are the most unexpected ones. No special occasion or reason or agenda required.

There were four in the bed and the little one said, "roll over, roll over!" #family

    That's such a sweet story. I think I would have done the exact same thing, close my eyes and pretend to be sleeping! Thanks for linking up! :)

      Thanks June! LOL... the truth about parenting emerges. Glad to know I'm not the only one pretending to be asleep when the kids come barging in, hehehe
