My boy and I had a day together.
Everyone else out of the house, just me and my boy.
We went to do some groceries. Boo and I arm in arm.
He singing a tune of his own composition, me dying from the cuteness.
Every now and then he would stop and just randomly hug me.
*swoon*
Every person we passed he would flash them a smile and an ‘excuse me!’
My face was cracking with the smiling. I chose to ignore the fuckers and flashed them a dazzling smile.
Cause dammit, that kid is so freaking CUTE!
Home, unpack, sit down with a latte.
He wanders over…
‘Hey Mummy! What is that shirt you have on?’
I am wearing a light green shirt. I only wear black or brown. It is very very different.
‘It is a green shirt’
‘Where did you get it Mummy?’
‘I dunno. I can’t remember’
‘What does it smell like?’ *sniff sniff*
Me laughing ‘What does it smell like Boo?’
‘It smells like shirt’
‘Oh. Do you like it?’
‘On you I like it’
And I dissolved into a puddle on the floor. Death by adorableness.

Too sweet! I could just eat him up!
oh oh oh oh I just want to put him in my pocket and take him home with me! SOOOOOO sweet! 🙂
Oh fuck!
I can’t stand it! *goes to goo*
What a wonderful, wonderful day!
That is too cute. Your words are infectious. I couldn’t help but grin while reading that.
Magical. Just magical. *sniff*
you totally deserved such awesomeness 🙂
What a fantabulous day. Random hugs and shirt sniffing and face cracking smiles. Love it.
It actually happened last Monday.
*snort*
But still melt-in-a-puddleable a week later.
Man, I hope ‘shirt’ is a good smell…
That’s what it’s all about. You captured it perfectly.
Dont have my glasses on and read that as shit the first time…umm..I guess that’s cute I’m thinking.
Nawwwww…now I get the cute *hehe*
Too adorable for words 🙂
awww so cute!
Those moments make the shit cleaning up all worth it 🙂
So sweet 😀
awww… every mom deserves one of those days.
I remember days like those. Cherish every minute.
That is lovely! Thanks for sharing such a special mommy moment!
Awwwwww! I feel all gooey melty too, and he ain’t even my kid!
Kinda jealous over the huge difference in the talks me and my boy have. I hate stuttering while trying to answer one of his latest revelations… Don’t they have a book or something for that? Like quick “right” answers for Mommy? Cuz I’m all out!
So if biscuits are cookies, then cookies are _____? The world may never know.
What a cutie!! Girls everywhere…look out for this one when he grows up! hahaha
dawn
Awwww! So sweet.
Aww…. that makes me miss my grandson so bad! I love how he does exactly as your little guy does: he hugs me for no reason. That is the BEST feeling in the world.
Why can’t adults be that spontaneous and giving? I’m off to hug someone right now!
🙂
Ach. Don’t forget though: he’s trying to butter you up for the future, when he starts to drive you crazy.
You should seriously schedule time like this on a more regular basis. It is SO worth it.
I am a goopy mess because of all the kid love going on out on the Internet today. I’m this close to not being able to sit upright now after reading this!
LOVE!
Very cool. I love it when you have days like that. But it makes it so much harder to punish them when they start your car and drive it backwards through your garage.
I have my long sleeved shirts done by our Chinese Laundry in town. No starch. Just pressed. I LOVE the smell of those shirts when they come back from the laundry. There is almost nothing like the smell of a clean, fresh shirt (except maybe the clean sheets thing – but that makes me horny so we won’t talk about that – I DO have to get some work done today). I assume that was a ‘fresh’ shirt. Maybe he was diggin’ mommy pheromones.
Awwww. He’s so adorable! I want one. 🙁
Thanks for sharing this.
Aren’t kids wonderful?
Of course, the conversations with my step son go like this:
“You’re going to behave in class today, right?”
*nods*
“You’re going to listen to the teacher on the first try, right?”
*nods*
“You’re a good boy, and I want you to show everyone else that, okay?”
*nods*
*waits for a minute*
“Do you think I could spit as high as the ceiling?”
*stunned*
Oh dear … I’m melting! MEL-TING!
Really hard to type now – I’m all puddly.
sooo sweet!!!!! times like that it makes you want to keep them right?? 🙂
Awwwww…..
I have a silly grin on my face, so stinking cute. I can picture all of it down to the green shirt. 🙂
Too damn cute. Yeah, I’m thinking shirt smell on me wouldn’t be as appealing.
Makes it all worth it.
I love when my girls put my face in their tiny hands and just look at me. The. Best.
boys and their moms… swoon. You get that silly grin on your face when out with a teen who is taller than you are too.
I just love those kind of days. It makes all the other days that were not lovable sort of worth it!
I know exactly what he means, it smells like shirt.
I love when time with the kids is actually wonderful. So happy for you!
Fun times 😉
Much sweeter than any of the males around here. 😉
How sweet!!! Jaymes is in the pinching phase, perhaps the cute phase comes next.
Little unexpected surprises happen just like that out of the blue, and are so precious. Glad for you, Kel, and for Boo.
Dude – this post ended in CUTENESS?! I thought for sure we were going down the “and then he projectile vomited all over it” path. I’m a little disappointed.
How awesome is Boo!
I bet days like this one make up for the nights when he is bouncing off the walls at 4am.
‘What does it smell like Boo?’
‘It smells like shirt’
‘Oh. Do you like it?’
‘On you I like it’
Awwwwwwwwbooisssooocuuuuuute
P.S. Why do you only wear black or brown? You would look great in other colours. Red for instance, or purple…blue…..did I mention red?
Adorable. There is just something about little boys, isn’t there?!!
Oh, I miss my sweet little boy. Now he’s a big smelly 8 year old who won’t let me kiss him.
I need to borrow some Boo … I need that kind of guy in my life 🙂
He’s too sweet! I take it that’s your new favourite shirt now!
Only wear black or brown? Woman, you would sooooo fit in here in Belgium…the world capital of black and brown wearers!
May I borrow Boo? It has been a very long time since I experienced human cuteness as wonderful and sweet as that! Somehow as much fun as kitty cuteness is, Boo beats it everytime, what a guy!
You’re cute!!! Sure isn’t that where Boo got it from?
Moments like these are just so precious.
Hugs to you both.
I took the boy with me last weekend while I ran errands. He was so happy…wanted to run more. He’s been missing me since I started working outside the house. It was lovely to spend the day with him…
Lattes and cuteness? I’d say that’s fairly well sustaining. 😉
Those are just the best days ever! I also look forward to them, so glad you had one recently.
