My Melting Heart

Paddy has been grumpy munchkin the last couple of days. I think it is partly due to his vaccines and part to do with teething. He is really chewing on everything, especially fingers...his and ours! When I put him to bed, I have a little routine I do with him. I give him a big hug and kiss and tell him how much his mommy and daddy love him. Tonight I think my heart melted a little, no I know it melted a lot. He had one hand on my arm and the other around my neck and he wouldn't let go. He wasn't squirming to get away, just held really still, so I thought he was asleep. I looked down at him and he looked back up and me and gave me the biggest smile. Yet, he still didn't let go. He held on for a good 3 minutes and I just stood there and rocked him and cuddled. It truly had to be one of the sweetest moments in my life so far.
