Love is....hearing the rhythmic breathing of another human being and rejoicing in their moment of peace and rest, even when you are spending yet another night unable to sleep.
Love is....sharing when you have very little left to share.
Love is...getting up and making yet another meal and cleaning up, even when you don't feel like eating or being sociable, because "checking out" from your kids is not an option.
Love is...staying up late to put that forgotten load of laundry through another cycle so you can get yet another load done so your daughter can have her basketball jersey come morning.
Love is...giving your son the last cookie even though you bought it and you want it too, dammit!
Love is....calling MeMa just to let her know you love her and miss her.
Love is...letting someone else enjoy their show when you'd rather change the channel.
Love is...letting someone find the right time to tell you something you already know.
Love is...busting your tail everyday, no matter what, for the people that depend on you.
Love is....playing Pictionary with the kids when you'd rather read a book.
Love is...choosing not to add to someone else's burden.
Love is...what I do.
