This is how it went down

My son: (running full speed towards me) "Mommy, mommy, mommy, look mommy...this shirt totally definitely fits me."

Me: (way too excited) "Yes it does! Good job babe!"

My son: (rolling his eyes and shrugging his shoulders) "Yeah, yeah, Mommy. It's just a shirt."

Me: (totally deflated) "Oh, okay. Well, I love you."

My son: (smiling) "I love you too, Mommy."

Me: refraining from grabbing him and smothering him with kisses and hugs. He needs his space as a big three year old, don't cha know.
