I love you...

One of my favorite children's books is "Guess How Much I Love You". Not wanting to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it, it is about a baby rabbit and mother rabbit expressing just how big their love is for one another. In our home, we've used a quote from one of our favorite movies, "I love you to infinity and beyond." When Thomas was about 4, he began to say, "I love you to infinity and beyond and back again." When he got a little older, he added, "I love you to infinity and beyond and back again for infinity." Just yesterday, I scooped up Isaac (all 51 pounds of him) and cradled him like a baby. I twirled around and kissed his cheek and said, "I love you, Isaac." He smiled up at me (showing his dimples) and said, "I love you to infinity..." he stopped, "I love you a million..." he stopped again, "I love you all the numbers in the world." He kissed me and finished, "And all the letters, too."
