My LionHeart

Each time I tell him I love him he says, “No you don’t! Only Daddy loves me.”
Each and every time. Never fails.
I try to kiss him, he tells me he doesn’t like kisses.
I tell him one day you’re going to get married and then you’ll like kisses. He tells me he’s never getting married.
I tell him he’s going to be a man one day and he’ll have to go to work, and he says,
“I know. So then I can take care of you.”
I’ve never told him he’ll have to take care of me when I’m old, he came up with this on his own.
I love his perception.
He does what he wants, how he wants, when he wants to.
Never can be rushed, but when he makes up his mind there’s no turning back.
He’s my LionHeart.
