Family time and hugs

today we just did whatever we wanted. The best thing about it was that we were together. Just the three us. I do not think there is much of anything else better than a day spent with Tyler and Griffin. They mean so much to me and thank God for them all the time.

If you've ever been around Griffin then you probably know that he is extremely social and extremely affectionate. Sometimes I think it might be because I am extremely affectionate towards him ALL THE TIME. Not only towards him but Tyler and I make it a point to show affection towards one another in front of him, because we think it's important he sees we love one another too. So, have I made him into this hug-giving, kiss-giving (not sure when he's kissing or biting sometimes) little boy? I wonder. We went to a bday party the other day and made this little 2 year cry because he wouldn't stop trying to hug him. I am beginning to think of how we are going to teach him not to hug so much? Or should we? How can you teach a 1 yr old not to show love? That is weird. He just gets so excited around other kids and just wants to play with them so badly and be near them and I guess show them he likes them. He's just so funny. He is def more affectionate towards Tyler and I too lately, giving sweet hugs and laying his head down on our laps and wraping his sweet little arms around our necks. So sweet. I will def not be teaching him not to hug us. I have come to wonder if I kiss and hug him too much? But how can you kiss and hug your child too much??? Kissing and hugging and loving on Griffin is the one thing I do best! ha! And the one thing I looked forward to the most while I was pregnant. I have to get it all in while I can before he grows up and I can't as much anymore.

So, God has made Griffin the way he is for a reason. And I am thankful he is a loving child so far. I pray he will be always, that he will be a Godly, masculine man, knowing and always remembering what a biblical man is and striving for that for God's glory.
