How a toddler shows he loves you

When he:

  • picks "flowers" for you (really weeds but who cares)
  • gathers really cool leaves and sticks to show you
  • exchanges cookies with you, to share
  • helps you put away the dishes
  • hugs you really tight and buries his face in your neck
  • shares his strawberries or juice with you
  • still wants you to hold him tight even after you discipline him
  • laughs at your silly faces
  • copies you when you are digging with the shovel or killing ants
  • pours warm water on you in the bath and says "Niccccce" while nodding emphatically
  • lets you comb and cut his hair
  • eats up all your homemade mac&cheese and cornbread
  • gives you kisses accompanied by the "MMMMaaaaahhhh" sound
