Conversation with Erin

As we laid in bed all snugly together watching TV Erin looked at me with her eyes inebriate with love.

Erin-Mommy do you love me?

Me-ABSOLUTELY!

E-How much?

M-As high as you can count and more.

E-Why?

snuggling closer

M-Because you so wonderful, sweet, funny, beautiful, nice, you make mommy happy and Heavenly Father blessed me by letting me be your mommy.

Closing her eyes with a big smile and rubbing her face on me with total content.

Me-Do you love mommy?

E-yes.

M-How much?

E-127 and 6

M-why do you love mommy?

E-because you give me food.

Motherhood can be so taken for granted but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I love Erin's response
"127 and 6." That is like an infinity to a child.

I think it is soooo cute to hear children's why of saying things. She's just happy and loves me because I take care of her.
