Mom ... I love you!

Recently John started telling me he loves me. He has been home over a year. We had never heard him say that he loves us until last week. He started about a month ago talking about other things he loves. "I love noodles!" "I love cars!" "I love my shirt." It got me wondering when I would hear those words directed at me. And then, out of the blue, "Mom, I love you!"

In all of our parent training for adoption they kept reminding us that love is an action. I'm so thankful that our actions are helping this little joy understand the emotion behind the word too.

"John, I love you too!"
