When about to begin babysitting my neighbors the other day, the dad came in to say goodbye to the kids. He said "give me kisses", and one by one, the kids gave him a hug and kissed him on the cheek. He told them all, "I love you" and they said they loved him, too.
Not only was it this act of love that touched me, but that a grown man wasn't afraid or ashamed to kiss his kids goodbye and tell them he loved them while a 16 year old girl stood there and watched.
