So, I have this thing I do with Ava once in a while where I hold her really close and whisper, “Do you want to hear a secret?” Then she whispers back, “Yes.” And I say, “I love you. Don’t tell!”
So, this morning we’re all lying in bed together, just starting to wake up. Ava’s in the middle of the bed. She rolls over, drapes her arm across my neck, and says, “Wanna hear a secret?” “Yes,” I reply. “I love you,” she whispers. It was super sweet.
Then she rolled over to Leah and said, “Wanna hear a secret?” “Yes,” Leah said, eagerly, impatient to get herself some of that first-of-the-a.m. sugar. “I like doggies and kitties,” Ava whispered.
