In modern Western culture, an eskimo kiss is the act of pressing the tip of one’s nose against another’s. It is loosely based on a traditional Inuit greeting called a kunik. ~ Wikipedia

In our house we don’t call them Eskimo kisses.

The other night when I tucked John into bed, he said to me “Can we do nose kisses?” Of course I knew exactly what he was talking about.

Tonight I went to check on Gillian. She was wide awake at 8:30, even though bedtime is 8:00. I tucked her in again and gave her tons of kisses. I leaned over and rubbed my nose against her nose. She giggled and said “Betty kisses!” She remembered that Aunt Betty was the last person to give her Eskimo kisses.
