Blue Monday Hugs

My Blue Monday today is more on a personal note than usual. Sometimes I have to show off some of my family. Smiling Sally, at http://smilingsally.blogspot.com, hope this meets your approval.

As most of you know by now, my great grandson's favorite blog day is Blue Monday. Layton and his daddy. The chain around his neck has a medal on it. He was awarded this medal for being most respectful to everyone in school.

Layton and his mother. (my granddaughter)
Now this takes you way back when I had the good fortune of getting a big hug from this hunk.
Everyone needs a hug each day. None are more precious than one from a child.

You are right, a hug or kiss from a little child is priceless, I also love even the smell of them. Their hair especially, perhaps if I inhale them enough, some of the youth will rub off on me! That is a very good picture of both of you! He must be a wonderful little boy, you must be so proud!!

Good Morning LV Sweetie...
Oh how this post warmed my heart this morning. Love those hugs from the little and big guy. Aren't those the sweetest little faces? How precious to recieve a medal for being respectful to all of his little classmates. That is a wonderful honor for a child so young. I would say his Momma and Daddy are doing a beautiful job in raising this precious child.

Thank you for the beautiful Blue Monday smiles today. Loved it. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

LOVE your Blue Monday post. And your Layton is such a handsome young man! I think being most respectful at school is wonderful. It seems parents my age have forgotten to teach manners and respect, it is nice to know that it is honored and celebrated at Layton's school.

What a cute boy! Love his smile. Great pictures too!

George said...

A hug a day does keep the blues away. I think this is a very appropriate post for Blue Monday. You have a very handsome family.

That is a fine reason to be awarded a medal.

To have this kind of award is wonderful. Frankly speaking, not many kids now are respectful. And you and Layton has the same kind of smile. ^_^ And by the way LV, I am curious of who is this hunk? Hehehe! Happy Tuesday! Thanks for the visit too.
