I Always Love You

I Always Love You

“I always love you”, the mommy said, “even when you are stubborn & won’t go to bed.”

"I always love you, my darling, Honey Bear, even when you put gum in your little brother’s hair."

"I always love you, my dear baby boy, even when you break your expensive new toy."

"I always love you, my sweet little Boo, even when on my new painted walls you drew."

"I always love you, my cuddly bug, even when you spilled juice all over the rug."

"I always love you, my cute kissy face, even when you throw water all over the place."

"I always love you,  you are my dearest heart, even when you took my new book apart."

"I always love you, no matter what you do, even if it seems I lose patience with you."

"You are my little boy & I love you so dear, your place in my heart will always be here."

While cleaning out my word documents, I discovered this little poem I wrote for my oldest son, Xander when he was three. It's saccharine and a little cheesy but completely true. And I still love my cuddle bugs even when I am screaming silently in my head while cleaning the fourth spill of the day or sweeping the remnants of my favorite mug off the kitchen floor. It's a mother's love.
