Earlier today, I was assigned the job of cleaning out random things from my youngest sister’s room. I decided to start with her bookshelf, which was overflowing with books from four older siblings, as well as her own. As I was emptying the neglected ones into a big cardboard box, I came across “Love You Forever,” which reminded me of the beautiful morals that we learned as children, but tend to forget as time goes on. The story is about a mother who, as her son grows older, continues to sneak into his room after he’s asleep and sing him this song:

I’ll love you forever
I’ll like you for always
As long as I’m living
My baby you’ll be.

And at the end of the story, he comes and rocks his dying mother, and sings the same song, changing it to “As long as I’m living, My mommy you’ll be.”

i really hope you enjoy it as much as i do.
