In our family....we hold hands all the time. When we are driving in the car....walking about town to and fro....sitting on the couch...or in the pew. It doesn't matter who's around...it makes no difference if we are in a public place like Home Depot or Chipotle (even w/the teens :) ....we hold hands.
I like to give the kids a special, private message...three quick squeezes....I.....Love....You.
It's so sweet when the only response is..... three quick squeezes back....I....Love....You.
Or even when the "I Love You" gesture is initiated by them. And then I get to respond.
No words. Nothing embarrassing. Just private squeezes shared between hearts.

That is so funny, Neal and i started doing that when we were dating 11 years ago and now we have passed that to our kids as well. I bet there are a lot of I love you squeezes going on out there!! Miss you guys! Love this sight- looks like you have had some good responses!! Hope to see you all. love Jeni
aw how sweet! we do winks when no one's looking and all three kids seem to love them. only one gives them back so far, but the others do smile. thanks for sharing!
