You might have heard of Eskimo kisses, bunny kisses, butterfly kisses and of course, Hershey's kisses but how about escalator kisses? No? Daddy and I kiss like this all of the time at the shops. Here take a look at these shots taken by Mummy:
The process is pretty simple. I sit in the trolley and while we go up or down the escalator, Daddy and I have to squeeze as many kisses in during the trip as possible. We are pretty awesome at it and if there was a championship, we'd win. We are so awesome that we have started putting in Eskimo kisses too to up the difficulty.
With Daddy working so much away from home lately we have to take all the opportunities that we can to get some excellent kisses in and even if he was home all the time, we'd do this anyway because it is awesome fun and makes me laugh a lot every time. People think we are weird.
Daddy is the best shopper I think. Mummy goes in and gets what we need and leaves whereas Daddy makes a lot of games. My favourite thing at the moment is that rather than pushing the trolley from the handle end, Daddy pushes the trolley from the other side and I can see where we are going. It is a bit like being on one of those wild rollercoasters I rode during the summer. What was it called, the whirlwind, the death spinner?.. No, it was the Piggy Train!!! That's right.
I see all the frustrated people getting in each other's way just trying to get out of the shop as fast as possible and there we are laughing and singing. Shopping might take longer with Daddy, but it is a lot more fun. Plus, I get lots and lots of kisses.
So the next time you are at the shops and frustrated, kiss more. If you are there alone, find a willing stranger and explain the fun to be had and I am sure they won't mind giving it a go. Try the fruit and vegetable section and stay away from the beer aisle, is my recommendation though.
