"I Love You"

[e.j.]

I usually say, "Aw! I love you too!" and give them a hug.

I do say "I love you" sometimes. sometimes I just reply with a "thank you very much, xxxx, you are the best" or "you are so sweet,xxxx"....I think it is good for children to hear "I love you" but not necessarily for me to always reciprocate an "I love you" which would deplete it's meaning...While I do NOT love daycare kids like my own kids, I do love them in a different kind of way!

I like that.
