I yuv you, Mama

Today, for the first time ever, Betsy told me she loved me spontaneously. Not once, not twice, but three times.

This morning we were shopping in Hobby Lobby and she smiled up at me from the cart and said, "I yuv you, Mama." Mommy proceeds to melt into a mushy puddle of joy.

Tonight as she was drifting to sleep she looked up twice and whispered it again with sleepy, happy eyes. And I breathed a prayer of thanks for such a precious gift. My sweet little girl.

What a wonderful feeling. I remember that day also. I think you will always cherish the memory.
