You Are My I Love You

I am your parent; you are my child.
I am your quiet place; you are my wild.
I am your calm face; you are my giggle.

I am your wait; you are my wiggle.

I am your carriage ride; you are my king


I am your push; you are my swing.

I am your audience; you are my clown.

I am your London Bridge; you are my falling down.

I am your carrot sticks; you are my licorice.

I am your dandelion; you are my first wish.


I am your water wings; you are my deep.

I am your open arms; you are my running leap.

I am your way home; you are my new path.

I am your dry towel; you are my wet bath.

I am your dinner; you are my chocolate cake.

I am your bedtime; you are my wide awake.

I am your finish line; you are my race.

I am your praying hands; you are my saying grace.

I am your favorite book; you are my new lines.

I am your night light; you are my starshine.I am your lullaby; you are my peekaboo.

I am your good night kiss; you are my I love you


From the children's book "You Are My I Love You" by Maryann K. Cusimano

This post is just overflowing with the beautiful love that you have for those three kiddos.

I am sure that when they are older they will look back at this one and know just how much their mama loved them.

Love the words....and the pictures really are perfect!

Ahhh! How beautiful you have combined your pictures with the words from the book.

This would make a great Mother's day gift idea for anyone.

Thanks for sharing some priceless moments in your life.
