Here are some of my favorite lines: "I am your parent; you are my child. I am your quiet place; you are my wild."..."I am your lullaby; you are my peekaboo. I am your goodnight kiss; you are my I love you." The illustrations, by Satomi Ichikawa, are also endearing. If you haven't read it yet, go check it out! I know this book will be a treasured favorite for years to come.

My new favorite bedtime story
Every night before bed, we read Kieran a bedtime story. I bought the book You are My I Love You (by Maryann K. Cusimano) a couple of years ago in hopes of sharing it with my children some day. Tonight was the first time I read it to Kieran. As the story unfolded, I began to cry as it was amazing to finally be doing something I had only dreamed about for so long. Many of the anecdotes in the story perfectly described experiences we've had together as mother and son.
