Here is my heart, Mommy!

I was putting favors together for a wedding shower and instead of just doing a circle hole punch I used a heart shaped hole punch. I know, its the details that I am obsessed about! Taylor thought it was so neat that it made tiny hearts that I just discarded once I had punched the hole...not really thinking twice about it. Taylor started playing with the little tiny hearts, but he wanted his to be red instead of the ivory paper that I was using. So we got out the red construction paper and he started to punch tons of heart shaped holes in the red paper. He picked one single tiny heart out of the pile and said..."Mommy here is my heart that I am giving to you to put on your heart." As he placed the tiny heart on my heart with his tiny hands, my heart melted. It was so sweet. But he was not content when the heart fell off of my heart so the little smarty pants that he is, he ended up taping the little red heart on top of me heart. So sweet that I could not bring myself to remove it before heading out the door to run errands. Not thinking about it, I was trying on somethings at Neimans and a good friend, Katie, simple asked..."what is on your chest?" From far away you could not tell it was taped so she thought I got a red heart tattooed to my chest. Too funny, but definitely a very cute and thoughtful gesture from my 3 year old!

So the photo below is of the heart taped to my chest not a photo of my chest...just clarifying!

Daddy was jealous that Mommy got a heart so he asked Taylor where his heart was, so Taylor made one for Daddy as well! Now the two hearts are in the journal with the story of them that I am writing for Taylor.
