Sweetness

"Mommy, close your eyes," Griffin whispers to me as I sit on the couch reading a book.

I quickly comply, closing my eyes tightly shut.

I feel him reach over me and his nose brush against mine. He kisses my nose, my cheek and my forehead.

"You can open your eyes now Mommy."

Oh, the sweetness. I open my eyes to see his loving green eyes gazing at me.

"I love you Mommy."

"I love you too G."

"I love you more," He says with a grin.

"No way. I love you more."

I do. I love him more. More than seems possible.
