Mummy nibble-kisses to raised little fingers; milk and cookies
Johnson's Baby lotion seals the deal; peachy vanilla, mallow fragrance

Thanks for reading!

Them pedalling an imaginary bike would always be so funny to me hehehe. Loved your poem!
Ah, those days. I don't miss the brown part...but the wriggling legs and the cuteness? My boys are practically men now! None of that until they have a batch of their own!
