Sorry there are no pictures to go with this post, but I thought it was too cute to not share. Last night, Shawn was going to be home late, so Phoebe and I decided to go to dinner with Nana and Papa. Phoebe and I were on one side of the booth while Nana and Papa were on the other. Phoebe was truly enjoying her chicken fingers and fries (taking a bite, doing a dance on the seat, taking a bite, doing a dance) when she caught us all by surprise. She leaned over and wrapped her arms around my neck and said, "Best friend, Mama." Just as I thought she was having some sort of out of body experience, she did it again. "Best friend, Mama." Only this time, she finished it off with a kiss on my cheek.
All three of us were completely dumbfounded. If you know Phoebe, you know that she is extremely conservative with her kisses. The beautiful part about it is that she was overcome with this emotion and she let it out. No inhibitions. No regrets. No hesitation. She felt the need to show affection toward me, and she did it. How come adults can't be more like that?
Wow! I learn new things from my two-year-old every day!
