vendingmachine commented on the word sirds puķīte
The person you love most is described in English as “the apple of your eye.” The phrase originates in Old English and means the pupil of the eye, which reflects the image of the one you’re looking at. In Latvian, your favorite person is your sirds puķīte, a.k.a. “the little flower of your heart.” Another endearment for a loved one is sirsniņa: “little heart” (this is a noun with a feminine ending) or sometimes just sirds.

I'll add only that puķīte sounds a little better than it looks--that ķ in the middle makes it more like "pooch-eat."
