kiss for mom

as we were driving back to our hotel
after a day at the beach at lake tahoe,
ryks was in his car seat saying,
"mom, mama, mom, mom, mama"
when i turned around, i saw
he was trying to give me his sippy cup.

about ten seconds later, i heard
"mom, mama, mom, mom, mama"
when i looked back
he smiled and blew me a kiss.

my heart melted.
