If you have a small child in your life that you are close to you will know what this is. It's the kiss that when you lean in to plant the kiss on whatever sweet part of the child's sweet face, arm, knee or any other kissable place, and you inhale deeply through your nose.
I discovered that I do this to my children INSTANTLY. So much so, that Annie, has begun to say, "no mamma" when I go to kiss her. :)

I just cannot describe the sweet smell of my children enough to do it real justice, but let me just try. Here is the best word picture I can give you..
It smells like a summer day, with sticky Popsicle juice, a warm wind, a hint of chocolate, maybe graham crackers, (I'm not sure which one for sure..) baby lotion, (the pink kind, Johnson and Johnson,) a little bit of baby powder, sun-kissed skin, and here's the big one, you know that smell when you are in the hospital and you've just delivered your sweet baby, and the nurse hands baby to you fresh from heaven, and lays him or her on your chest, and your eyes fill up with tears so much so that the tears drip down onto your new baby's nose? That's the smell you get in a "smell kiss."
There is nothing on earth more sweet than that.
