| Sometimes I get ideas from my kids, sometimes from my own kid-hood, sometimes from people I meet.One day, at a book signing, a mom told me that her sons always asked who she loved best. "I tell them," she said, "that I love them just the same."This made me think. Do I want to be loved the same? Do I want to be loved more? I thought about the way I love my own children and decided it wasn't the same, and it wasn't more or less, either. It was special. I loved them in a Robby-way or an Anneke-way or a Maaike-way. |  |
