When I was putting her to bed tonight, Hope said to me, "Mommy, I love you too much to bite you.  Sometimes I feel like bitting you, but I love you too much."

For awhile now, maybe the last year or so, when I put Hope to bed, we have a great time with a little massage session.  I rub her back and tummy, and she often wants to also give me a neck and back massage, sometimes arms too.  She is actually really amazing at it for a four year old.  She often has her little special methods she uses, like a quick move with her hands, then slow ones.  So funny!  She can be so amazing and precious, and often so sweet and generous too!
