Cheeks


"Mom? When will I not have chubby cheeks anymore?"

"Who said you had chubby cheeks?"

"Coop said that maybe I can't be Harry Potter for Halloween because I have chubby cheeks."

"Your cheeks are beautiful and perfect."

"What does chubby mean?"

"When you're talking about cheeks, chubby means round. You know who used to have chubby cheeks?"

"Who?'

"Your mother. I'll show you a picture of baby-me."

"You had those cheeks? They're not chubby now."

"Your cheeks might change as you get older but they are outstanding cheeks, no matter what."

"I'm going to be Harry Potter for Halloween."

"You'll be a terrific one."

  4. Wait...he's going to be Harry Potter for Halloween? Has there been a shift in the Force?
    I'm surprised you still have cheeks at all. How did you manage to grow into adulthood without having them pinched and kissed off?

  5. Kids are supposed to have chubby cheeks. But very few are blessed with Mama's gorgeous cheekbones.

  6. Oh my gosh! He is seriously so precious. I love squishy cheeks! They're so kissable and sweet. Bob can be whoever he wants to be for Halloween and Coop better believe it! =]

    It's also awesome that he wants to be Harry Potter! I was expecting something a little more Star Wars themed. =]

  9. Wow. Did your cheeks slide up and become cheekbones? That's the best trick, Lisa. Tell Bob he'll need the chubby cheeks to hold up his glasses.
