Every Friday we unite for five minutes. Only five minutes, that's all we get, that's all we have. And then, right where we are, no edits or second-thoughts, we publish those words. This week, we write on show.
Go.
How do I show you I love you?
Is it through a tradition?
The ones that the first time we do them fill me with something so full, so wonderful, so magical that I could not imagine my life without them?
Is it the number of hugs?
The ones that we hold on a little too long, the ones that I smell your air and
Is it the smooches?
The ones that I can't help but pile on? You're so damn smoochy!
Is it our little sayings?
The ones that I started the very first day you were born? The ones that spilled out of my mouth so naturally and stayed with us forever?
Is it our time together?
Our walks, our night-time snuggles, the shows we love to watch together, our reading dates?
Is it this blog?
The one that has captured motherhood and childhood all in one?
Is it the framily we have shared together?
The feeling of being complete with our people?
Is it how honest we can be together?
How much we can cry, laugh, talk, tell?
How do I show you I love you?
Let me count the ways.
How do you show me you love me right back?
Is it through a tradition?
The ones that you love as much as I do and insist on?
Is it the number of hugs?
The ones that you melt into me with?
Is it the smooches?
The ones that you laugh at me giving?
Is it our little sayings?
The ones that you know so well you whisper them to me from your dreams?
Is it our time together?
Our walks, our night-time snuggles, the shows we love to watch together, our reading dates?
Is it this blog?
The one that you'll read and cry at, the one that you'll have forever as a memory?
Is it the framily we have shared together?
The feeling of knowing we have found our home?
Is it how honest we can be together?
How much you open up to me, tell me what is on your mind, but also protect?
How do you show your love my littles?
Let me count the ways.
Stop.
