Yeah Baby - Give Me Some Kisses!

Yeah Baby - Give Me Some Kisses! We start out as babes, loving ourselves and wanting to be loved. Then, somewhere along the way, we begin our retreat into consciousness and self-doubt. We allow the opinions of others to shape how we think about ourselves. We lose our innocence and we start to see the world through the eyes of cynicism and fear. And that prevailing attitude carries into adulthood, feeding and nurturing the never ending cycle of babble and confusion. Oh to be a babe again!

Yeah Baby - Give Me Some Kisses is an inspiring video I watch frequently. It's a reminder that we need to love who we are... with all our quirks and flaws, and remain present in the glorious moments of life. And, every now and then, it's okay to love, smile and give yourself some kisses. I hope and pray my grand-baby never stops looking at the girl in the mirror and loves what she sees! Yeah Baby - Give Me Some Kisses!

That baby has found the love of their life LOL. It is so interesting their reaction to a mirror. Dogs have done this funny scene too I have noticed. The kissing part was very endearing Melinda.

Super cute Melinda. Love to watch those innocent little babes at play. Your daughter sounds pretty proud of her in the video too...but I noticed daddy got a little protective - worried the mirrored door might come unhinged. Sweet. Ellie's a doll.

Laughing at Brian's comment too. :)

So cute Melinda - you have to wonder what that baby is thinking about - lol. The first time my dog saw herself in the mirror she lunged......at herself and hit the mirror! It was pretty funny and she hasn't done it since!

Melinda,

We were just talking about this very subject with our cousin last night. When a baby first appears on the scene, they are loved unconditionally, as they grow they have to begin to perform to get that same love. Love becomes pleasing and performing according to rules that grownups set...A

It sure is Mimi... my little one calls me GG ;)

A sad set of rules... Alexandra. Love knows no limits ;)
