Toddler Firsts – I Love You

There are three little words that can melt a grown man’s heart.
There are three little words that can melt a mommy’s heart.
There are three little words that make every moment of parenthood worth it.

I love you!

Just two days ago my 2 year old daughter, Kaydence, said those three little words to my husband and I for the first time. I know my children love me, it’s a given, but to hear them express that love in words makes all the difference.

    Isn’t that the sweetest? Makes you feel all mushy and you do whatever you can to hold back the tears.

  2. Cat,

    That was sweet. Isn’t that the coolest thing? I never grow tired of hearing those words spoken to me by my children. My three year old has moved up to telling my husband and me that we’re the “bestest mommy/daddy.” I still love “I love you” the “bestest.”

    So sweet!

    My fiance finally got my one year old to say I Love You about a week ago and it was the sweetest thing ever! Of course it sounded more like Lob Ew, but I’ll take it!

    Goodness. I remember those moments with my 3. (How cool that you have video of it!) I have to rely on memory for those moments.

    Still, it’s a wonderful feeling to hear that. Like the first time your baby learns that open-mouth “kiss” to express love. (but a lot less messy)

    those are the sweetest words one could ever hear. I love it when my husband says it, my children and the best part is when my grandbaby says it

  9. These are some of the greatest memories. Hearing that from your children is so joyful. I have some daycare kiddos who tell me that and it makes me smile every time.
