I love you Alexis!

Read this story to find out just how much.

Hugs & Kisses, Mom

Elmo and his mommy were talking late one night, snuggled up together, cozy, warm, and tight.

Just like Elmo’s mommy, I whisper in your ear, “I love you, little Alexis, so very much, my dear.”

“I’ve loved you all your life, every single day.

I love you oh so much— I’ll tell you all the ways!”

I love you brighter than

1

sun up in the sky.

I love you softer than

2

clouds floating by.

I love you sweeter than

Do you want cookie, Alexis?

3

crunchy, yummy treats.

I love you bigger than

4

giant, hairy feet!

I love you spookier than

5

big flying bats.

Count with me, Alexis!

I love you taller than

6

tall, towering hats.

I love you more than the number

78 9 ,

Alexis, I love you more than

1

through

10

combined!

I love you from your

head all the way down to your toes.

Alexis, I love your silly

laugh, your smile, and your nose.

I love you

redder

than the nicest, reddest rose.

I love you

bluer

I’d love you if you were

big or very, very small.

I’d love you if you were

short

or really, really

tall

I love you when you’re

I love you when you’re

neat.

I love you when you’re

grouchy (and even more when you are sweet).

FAST or even when you’re s l o w.

I love you when you’re

Up, up, and away, Alexis!

I love you

deeper

than the river rushing by.

Alexis, I always love you on a bright and

sunny day.

I also love you when the

rain won’t go away.

I love to be with you through

seasons one and all.

I love you all the flowers of

spring and all the leaves of fall.

I love you when you’re

near; I love you when you’re far.

Alexis, I love you

all the time,

no matter where you are!

Alexis, I love you often, always, and time and time again.

I love you from the beginning to the very end.

Like Elmo and his mommy, let’s trade a hug and kiss.

And don’t ever forget,

I love you just like this.
