Kissing is a big deal: affection, love, connection. We have always shared kisses on the lips with you, even with daddy's scratchy beard. I guess you've never known any different.
As a preteen I remember deciding that I no longer wanted to kiss relatives on the lips, instead turning my head to receive pecks on the cheek. I wonder if you'll do the same.
For now you seem confused whenever someone tries to kiss you on the cheek, always offering up your little puckered lips, carefully placing them delicately for that moment of shared affection.
We are greedy for your kisses. You give them willingly.
