I think she picked it up from Michael, who sometimes boops her on the nose and says, “boop!” and sometimes I boop her on the belly button and say, “boop!” Well, in traditional June fashion, she has seen our nose-and-belly-button booping and raised us far stranger body locations to boop.
Sure, she will poke us on the nose and say, “boop,” sometimes during but sometimes a few seconds too late. She booped Michael on his nipple one time and he laughed so hard that she tried to do it to me. She got mad until I let her pull my shirt up and boop me on the nip. My fellow shoppers at Target didn’t find it as amusing as I did.
(They totally found it amusing.)
She boops me on The Belly Mole. Sometimes she boops
excitedly, sometimes her boops are more low-key.
The other night I was putting June to sleep in our normal
style. I was holding her while I sang a song and rocking back and forth. She
had rested her head on my shoulder, had nuzzled into my neck, had her little
koala arms wrapped around my shoulders, gripping the sleeves of my shirt.
Suddenly she picked her head up. She pulled her hand to her mouth and removed
the Binks. With her other hand, she poked me in The Neck Mole and said very
sleepily, “boop.”
Then she put her Binks back in her mouth, set her head back on my shoulder and let me finish
my song, voice shaking from suppressed laughter.
