Words of Love

At Thanksgiving yesterday, Madeline spent some time talking and playing with various family members. She has hardly ever talked to our Uncle Bill, mainly because he's a grown up that she doesn't spend much time around except for the holidays. Without knowing that he will be undergoing an angiogram next week and that his life could be in danger, she gave him a hug goodbye last night and said, "Good-bye, Uncle Bill. I hope you don't get dead." He cracked up and pulled me aside to tell me. When I asked her about it today, as far as why she wanted to tell him that she answered, "Because I just love him so much."
