Warm Heart, Wet Ear

Lexi recently playing dress-up with my clothes

Lexi and I were sitting in the recliner watching Scooby Doo last night.  The sun had set and the lights were low in the living room.  I turned to my left as I felt Lexi’s hands at my hair.  She was looking at me with a smile and pushed my hair behind my ear.  “You’re pretty.”  Melt my heart.  “That’s so sweet, Lexi.  Thank you.”  I turned back to the movies with a smile in my heart.  I felt her still smiling and looking at me again so I looked back and smiled, sure that we were having a wonderful mother-daughter moment.  I turned back towards the movie and suddenly felt a wet finger in my ear and heard her beginning to laugh.  Lexi leaned forward towards Scott and Emma on the couch and yelled, “I gave Mommy a wet willie!!”

Stinker.
