I don’t know if it was originally a bug bite that was then scratched into an open wound or if Sophia was rubbing her hand on the textured wall her crib sits against at night. I doubt it was the second since knockdown is fairly smooth, but it was one of the theories. Either way I noticed a round wound on the back of her hand one morning, weeks ago. It was bleeding when I first saw it, so I washed it off and gave her a kiss. She never let the damn thing scab up. By the end of the day, I had to wipe the blood off her hand again. I kissed the back of her hand again. At the end of the second or third day, she was lifting the back of her hand to me in a slightly closed fist for a kiss. Later it progressed to kissing her wounded then unwounded hand as well and a kiss on the lips. At least she has finally learned to kiss with her mouth closed.
Her hand has healed and only a scar remains but Miss Princess, at random times, will still give me her hands to kiss.
That princess stuff is real cute at this age, but I’ll bet you want to bop her one when she gets to be a teenager.

what a super sweet story. I still have little ones that give me their 4 heads to give kisses on. NOT sure why the forehead maybe because thats where I’ve always kissed them when they were babies. Lol.
