How I woke up this morning.

SON: Big hug!!
(hugs mom)

MOM: (sleepily) Hmm? G'morning. (yawns) So this is the first thing you choose to say this morning?

SON: Well I love you!

MOM: I love you, too, sweetie!

SON: I'm sorry you broke your foot.

MOM: Aw, it'll be alright

(SON rubs MOM's foot)

SON: I'll make it better with my love.

MOM: Thanks, honey! I'm sure it'll get better just because you love me.

SON: Yeah, because love makes everything better. Without love, the world couldn't even be alive. I love everybody. I love you and I hope your foot gets better.

MOM: Did someone feed you unicorns and rainbows for breakfast?

Okay, I made that last line up, but I thought it would be funny anyway. I'm pleasantly pleased that my six year old son feels things like empathy, hope, and love. He's such an optimist, and a very cool guy! How'd I get so lucky?
