Pillow Talk


Last night as I tucked Ellie in...
Ellie: Mommy what does mad feel like?
Me: Like when someone grabs a toy away from you.
Ellie: Oh. What does sad feel like?
Me: Like when you really want daddy to come home from work.
Ellie: Yeah. Mommy, what does happy feel like?
Me: Like when we surprise you by taking you to get a donut or ice cream.
Ellie: Smiling. Mommy what does love feel like?
Me: What does love feel like to you?
Ellie: Like giving you a hug.

I like how love feels.
