I Love Yous

Dear Jonas,
You tell me you love me, oh, about 35 times a day. They sound like this:
"Mom, I love you."
"Mom, I love you more than all the __________." (Could be mountains or clouds or the best is universe)
"Mom, I love you more than you love me." (You only say this so we can say in unison "impossible" and then laugh together)

Sometimes your way of telling me is to just make a kiss sound. I love hearing random kisses from you in the backseat, bathroom or kitchen. I just return the sound.

I remember when you would never tell me you loved me. I wondered if those sweet words would ever roll off you tongue. I don't want to forget your first ways of telling me you love me. They make my day.

Love, Mom
