    My son, who is about to turn 20, will always say “I love you, mom!” And wait for me to say “I love you, too!” If I somehow don’t hear him, he will go “moooom, I looooove youuu!” until I answer.

    I’m not going to lie, raising him was tough, and there are still many things I have to teach him. But when I hear that sing-songy “Mooom, I looooove youuuuu!” My heart just melts.
