A few weeks ago, we taught Ali to say "I love you THIS much!!", with her arms spread out as far as they could go. It's absolutely adorable - a sure moment to be cherished in a toddler's life.
I then took it a step further and started saying, "I love you to the sky!!", or, "I love you to Atlanta!!", or "I love you to the moon!!".
This brought out a whole new dimension of our conversations, of which I am sure could be analyzed for a greater understanding of a toddler's reasoning skills.
This is usually about how they go:
Me: "I love you to the sky!!!"
Ali: "I love you to the WALL!!"
Me: "I love you to Atlanta!!"
Ali: "I love you to the CHAIR!!"
Me: "I love you to the moon!!"
Ali: "I love you to the DOOR!!"
Maybe love DOES have it's limits. . .
Oh well. It's at least good to know where I stand.

That's so cute! David and I still play a game like that. We used to go back and forth with it for several minutes, but as he's getting older, he'll only do it a couple of times and then say, "Mommy, I don't want that game anymore."
I love the pictures of her playing in the puddles. Those are so good!
I love it..I remember doing the exact same thing with Michael and Gracie...I still get Gracie to do it some...I am happy wiht "I love you mom" out of my 11 yr old!!
