A conversation I just had with M:
M: "Mommy, I love you."
Me: "M, I love you more."
M: "I don't think that's possible, but OK, I believe you."
So cute. Even cuter, we just had the same conversation again (10 minutes later)! This time she responded, "I don't know about that."
Another cute thing: here is an email that Emily sent the girls on their birthday:
Happy Happy Birthday to my most favorite 8 year olds in the whole
world. I hope you have a very special and fun day today and that you
love being 8. You are the most thoughtful, sweet, creative, funny,
smart, and talented girls, and I love and miss you both very much!
Can't wait to see you when I get home this summer.
We are excited for Emily to come home!
