John Cougar Mellencamp was one of my favorite artists growing up and these days his song "Hurts So Good" starts playing in my head when Gusi starts repeatedly signing *hurt*. Let me explain. Gusi has gotten that *hurt* results in hugs and kisses so sometimes even if he's on the floor playing and it's been a while since he's had cuddle time, he'll sign *hurt*. I of course play along.
Gusi: Mama! *hurt*
Me: Gusi, are you ok?
Gusi: *hurt* (makes puppy-dog eyes and pouts lip)
Me: Oh, my sweet boy, let me kiss it and make it better.
Gusi: Ooohhh (kisses me back)
He knows he gets special attention when he signs *hurt* and I am happy to give it to him. It just cracks me up how much he milks it for what it's worth. If he feels I haven't given him enough kisses he'll sign *hurt* again and wait for the kisses. I can't really blame him. I enjoy the cuddle time just as much as he does.
