Baby kisses

We are always trying to help Ben understand that there is a baby in mom's tummy and he is going to be a big brother. When we ask him where the baby is he points to his belly, which is when I usually point to my ever growing belly and say "no, the baby is in mom's tummy." Last night we asked him to give the baby kisses, and he did! At first he just kissed the air like he usually does, then he actually kissed my belly. I was very touched and thought he finally understood where the baby is. Then he kissed my thigh and began to see it as a game, cheering for himself after every kiss. Oh well, at least Ben learned to give real kisses and I can still think that he gave the baby kisses, right?
