I was at my desk typing this afternoon and my Benny came up behind, wrapped his arms around me and buried his face in my neck. He said "Mom, you always smell the same. I love it." hmmm. "What does 'the same' mean?" I asked. Ben said "like a clean smell, like you wash your body 5 times a day."
I loved this comment because I know exactly what he means. I think we all know what the people we love best smell like. For example, if dean, my mom, dad or oma walked into a room and I was blindfolded I would know it was them in an instant. They smell like home to me; safe, snuggly and warm. I am thrilled that Benny already knows my smell and it brings comfort to him too.
