Love Remembers

Some nights I don’t know what to write. On this night there are so many thoughts whirling around in my head that I don’t know where to start.

Lennon and I were discussing love today. Usually I find new little people are some of the wisest philosophers around, but today I was being the wise one and Lennon, with his usual patience and good natured sense of humor was, well, humoring me!

He was expounding on how much he loved me as compared to Mommy and Daddy. Mommy being as wide as his arms could reach. Daddy and I being a little pinch he squinted at with laughing eyes! He knows exactly what he’s doing and he enjoys it so much! Of course I had to goad him a bit and then we really began to talk about how funny it is we never run out of love, no matter how much we give away.

In the middle of our talking we changed course and stopped to paint a picture and then sing some songs and life just went on from there.

Until he was leaving and he peered at me over his Mommy’s shoulder as she carried him out. Laughing, he spread his arms as wide as he could and said, “Hey, Gramma! I love you this much!”
