Have You Hugged Someone Today?

This weekend I took special care to play with my girls.  We went "swimming" in the kiddie pool in our backyard, we went to a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese, we read books, and we spent time playing good old-fahioned toys.

Life can be short--too short.  Have you hugged your kids today?  You should.  And if you don't have kids, you should find someone else to hug. Then tell them they have to pass the hug along.  What do we have if not love, and what good are we if we don't show that love?

Rest in the arms of Jesus, sweet Noah. You won't be forgotten.

  1. I'm always hugging my daughter--and kissing her. Hugs are the best.

  3. Hugs are very important! We have one member of our house who isn't a hugger (guess what, it's a teenager - I know, you're shocked - hugging her has been described as "hugging a dead fish"), but the rest of us hug. I wouldn't want to live without hugs in my life!

  4. I got a several big hugs out of my 14 year old son after I scared the pants off of him. It was so funny. We are still laughing...

    Hugs are always good!

  6. So sorry to hear about Noah. My thoughts are with his family and friends. Hugs can translate so much. I hug my grandmother constantly even when we've run out of things to say. Hand-holdings are nice, too. :)
