Daddy’s His World, But Mommy’s His Favorite Girl

“I love you so much!” I told my son.

“And I love Daddy so much!” he responded.

Yeah . . . I hear that a lot.

Daddy’s his whole world.

All I hear about is how much he wants to be like his dad.

I hear all about how much he loves his daddy.

And if I’m being honest, I get jealous sometimes.

But then I remember, it’s my hand he reaches for when he’s nervous.

It’s my lap he finds when he wants to snuggle or doesn’t feel good.

It’s my name he calls for in the morning or in the middle of the night if he’s had a bad dream.

Daddy may be his world.

But Mommy’s his favorite girl.
