Every night I curl up next to my Sunshine on her bed. This simple, repetitive act created the opportunity for the sweetest, most important affirmation.
Mother, (yes, she calls me Mother) I love you wider than the sky.
I love you wider than the sky, too.
Gazing at my face, then glancing at my mussed up hair, she asked,
Do you love me bigger than your hair?
Yes, honey, I love you bigger than my hair.
The conversation continued as I insisted my love is bigger than my ears, eyes, nose, and mouth.
I Love You More captures a similar interaction. A mother tenderly answers her son’s plea, “Mommy, (I need to keep reading this to Sunshine) just how much do you love me?”
I love you higher than the highest bird ever flew. I love you taller than the tallest tree grew…
The son’s response is found by turning this innovative flip book upside down and around.
I love you higher than the longest lollipop ever lasted. I love you louder than the loudest rocket ship ever blasted…
This delightful story reinforces the peace and strength of unconditional love already planted in my children’s hearts.
Now is your opportunity to enjoy a sweet moment with your little one. In the spirit of the season, I am giving away my review copy of I Love You More. To enter the drawing, just leave a comment. The winner will be announced November 30. Best wishes!
*Update* Due to my comments not working the deadline is extended until December 1.
