A sweet, gentle expression even with the dirt and the pink touch. <br />Like Christie, I love giving hugs to my daughter too.

As a mother of a daughter and a son, I think that pose goes with my son more often as I explain why he can't do something that would be dangerous, but my daughter is the one who needs at least 100 hugs a day! (Since I'm sick, she's going into withdrawal big time!) But I'm sure she'll catch up when we're all well.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08621552249179937594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-4396122420012562062010-04-22T14:08:25.812+02:002010-04-22T14:08:25.812+02:00That's a lovely motherhood representation.

I'm curious about a fatherhood representation as children are now not exclusively their mother's worry but also their father's. <br />My youngest is about this size and very tonic. But sometimes she acts with me a bit like smaller than she is. That's obviously a little trick to pull my attention on herself ; then I can't resist of course. Who could?<br />This morning I had a visit at my favorite doctor's who gave my chidren birth (motherhood is well chosen today, hey!). He warned me about ... me. Yeah, I'm aging... he told me I was cheating with myself. Huh ?! He's always frank. :)Florenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-37257342230993989712010-04-22T11:58:06.144+02:002010-04-22T11:58:06.144+02:00Anonymous, just a gentle wipe with a wet cloth.

On second thought, I heard my 9-year-old tell someone that I think she needs to work on her manners before I take her to Paris (which is true). Then she said she didn't care about Paris or manners...she just wants to "enjoy her youth." I'm not even sure what that means, but if it means I don't have to drag her around Paris, yippee for me!♥ E.T.
