Luke says (for the 100th time today): Hey Mom?
Me: Yeah?
Luke: I looove you.
Me (thinking, yes, I know, you have said that about 50 times today already): I love you too.
Luke: I said that 5 times (giggles).
Me: Yes, you say it a LOT.
Luke: Do you know why?
Me: Because you love me?
Luke: Yeah, but that's not why. It's because I don't want your heart to break.
that has to be one of the best, most heart rending utterances from the mouth of your son. So sweet. It's good you're writing these things down - I did the same for the first few years of my kids' lives and I am so glad I did.
