Is there worse than hearing your kid say I HATE YOU????
Lord, knows I said it to my own mother more times than any heart should have to bear.
A lovely day spent in the city with an old friend who hadn't seen us since he was a baby.
We played trains and make-believe and chase until it was time to go.
A quick drop off and we were nearing home when I heard....
Him: "Mama, I need to tell you something!"He's three.
Me: "Sure, what's up?"
Him: "Mama, I don't love you...in fact, I never did."
He broke my heart into a million pieces.
It took a moment before I composed myself and told him that it was a shame that he didn't love me anymore.
It took a moment before I told him that my love would never falter, come what may--part of my heart was marked forever his.
