Makes the heart grow fonder
I just got back from a few days of business travel. Lisa reports that this conversation with our boy took place this morning:
Mom: I know you missed daddy while he was away. I missed him too.
Lad: Yeah, well, I missed him more than you. I cried you know, and that means something.
This is a beautiful comment on self awareness and the competitiveness of affection. Indeed, crying does mean something.
