I have been making a more conscious effort to hug & kiss my boys lately at times other than bedtime or saying goodbye. It seems that in the flurry of activities, sometimes a simple act like a hug and kiss get lost. Franklin was particularly resistant to the insistent kiss of his mother at first, but now he allows me without complaint (though he does try to blend in with the wall if I attempt it in front of anyone). Today, he reciprocated my effort by bringing me a gift that he purchased at his school's reward booth. I know that I am loved in return.
