i love you the monkeys

sweetest boy.

beckley and i play this game...

it goes like this...

mom:  "i love you"

beck:  "no, i love you"

mom:  "no, i love you more"

beck:  "no, i love you more"

mom:  "no, i love you the most"

beck:  "no, i love you the most"

 it starts like this, but can go on much longer...

and, isn't always that orderly...

sometimes, we through in some

"no, i love daddy"

or 

"no, i love the babes"...

i LOVE this sweet game.

not, sure when or how it started,

but, i'm so glad it did.

today,

we were playing this game...

beck said "no, i love you more"

then i came back with "no, i love you the most"...

beck paused for a second...

then he said: "no, i love you the monkeys"

at that, we both broke into laughter.

i guess "the monkeys" tops "the most".

who knew?  my beckley boy did.

and, he has been saying it all day long.

well, my sweet Beck... 

"I LOVE YOU THE MONKEYS"
