There is an episode of the kids' show Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood called "Love Day" in which they talk all about how to show people you love them. In a musical number, Daniel draws a heart on the screen, picks it up, and gives it to his mom (and later his dad).
This afternoon, I was practicing shapes with Micah, and drew a heart (among other shapes). He pointed at it, and I said, "Heart!" and he almost tackle-hugged me. Then he tried to pick it up off the ground. Obviously he could not (I drew it with chalk). Remembering the episode, I grabbed a piece of paper and cut out a big heart. He excitedly grabbed it and colored red chalk on it, then handed it to me.
Then he ran inside and asked to watch TV.

I love you too, little man.
