Love And Alliances

Laura put Xavier down. Within a couple of minutes he is screaming. For mom.

I go up to see if I can comfort him and get him to quiet down and go to sleep.

As soon as I go in there, he’s quiet.

He’s ignoring me.

I crawl into the bed. He looks over at me.

“What’s going on?”

“Nothing.”

I take a different approach.

“Do you want a hug and kiss?”

“NO! Mommy gave me a hug and a kiss.”

“Okay. I love you.”

“No, mommy loves me.”
