Just a few minutes ago, as we were snuggling before bedtime, Griffin asked, "Can you sing the love you for always song?" So, of course, I began rocking my four year old and sang:
I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be.
After singing this about ten times, I kissed my oldest baby goodnight and left the room fighting back tears.
Thank you, Robert Munsch, for putting my feelings into a book I hope my kids will love and remember forever.
I can hardly get through that book and song without bursting into tears. In fact, just thinking of it makes me tear up.
