I might be a little fanatical when it comes to hugging and kissing my boys...so much so that for about the past year now Trenton will not kiss me in front of his friends. At first this truly hurt my feelings but then I started to understand that he is 8 now and it is soooooo not cool to be seen kissing your mom. Now I try particularly hard to control myself with Trenton to hugs and kisses in the house only so I do not embarrass him so much. Since I have started this we now do a Hudson sandwich or a Trenton sandwich...the person who is in the middle is the sandwich. Last night was the funniest sandwich hugging of all and it just delights me so much I have to write about it!
Hudson requested we do a Hudson sandwich last night. Of course when we do this it makes all of us laugh but last night Hudson laughed so hard he couldn’t even make sound! It was hysterical. His face gets like mine when he laughs, high round cheeks, eyes squinty and red. Than it was time to switch and it was Trenton’s turn. Both the boys were laughing so hard that we all laughed harder! I went to bed thinking this is exactly why God puts children on this earth….to laugh, to love and to just be kind to each other. Please don’t get me wrong…our house is very loud! Trenton and Hudson 98% of the time are yelling at each other, hitting each other or telling on each other…it drives me crazy. But for those five minutes of Trenton/Hudson sandwiches it actually cancels out the 98% of craziness!
