Highly appropriate for us as we're coming to the end of a visit with Evan's daddy. You see, Evan's daddy works approximately 5,000 kms away, and can only come to visit once in a while--up to 3 months away at a time. This is hard for the little guy as he misses his daddy. And then he has to fit in all the snuggles and cuddles and kisses he can in such a short time.
In three days Evan will be without his daddy. Yes, it's rough. We're already feeling sad and forlorn. To an almost-four year old, it's going to be "forever" before he sees his daddy again. And that makes him sad.
The snuggles begin.
Too much love to hold in... the tummy kiss!
The snuggles and kisses help for now. And that's what he has to cling to:
His daddy and his kisses.

Such sweet pics. You certainly captured the love and joy in the moment.
ReplyDeleteThose are precious memories to treasure in the years to come.
ReplyDeleteMy 13 year old will still let us do that - but he is also at the beginning of the big "P" with his voice starting to crackle and he's getting taller, it won't be much longer and those days will be gone forever for us.
Treasure them!
What a sweet moment shared! Thank you for sharing it with the rest of us. My heart is breaking a little for the two of them and I am wiping away tears as I type this. Not wishing your life away, but I sure hope the next 3 months fly by!
ReplyDeleteI love the movement in the second shot, very sweet moments.
ReplyDeleteHope the next three months fly by.
It's funny how such happy moments can be so bittersweet, too. Lovely, lovely pictures.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet photos...hope the time flies for him!
ReplyDeleteJust adorable.
ReplyDeleteStopping by from You Capture to share some kisses
ReplyDeleteThis hit one of my soft spots, and got me all teary...
ReplyDeleteVery well captured :)
Precious photos. The first one is my favorite. But so sad too... 3 months is a very long time, especially for a little guy.
ReplyDeletethere are tears forming... you've captured the dynamics so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteOh that's so tough! I'm sure there will be lots of kisses and photos over the next couple of days!
ReplyDeleteLovely pics! I love the last one especially. Tell Evan's Daddy I said hi!
ReplyDeleteSweet photos.Nicely captured.
ReplyDeleteI'm all weepy now! Oh how beautiful these photo's are.

Those are incredibly precious pictures!! That makes me so sad that your poor little guy has to be away from his Daddy for so long. My kids hate being away from their Daddy for even a day or two let alone three months.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great moment to capture for the little one!
ReplyDeleteI love Daddy kisses, tummy ones or not! That is great you captured and share those moments.
ReplyDeleteOh, they will both cherish these pictures. How rough that they have to be so far apart. I'm now conflicted--does he have your eyes or daddy's?
ReplyDeleteI love the last one ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe last picture is incredible. Your little Evan looks so at peace with his daddy near by.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing and thanks for visiting.
Have a great weekend.

Awww, so sweet. I can't wait til my hubby gets his sons...he is so excited!
