A mother has more than one son and one day one of her sons told her this: "Mom, I know that really you love me because whenever I tell you something you stop on what you're doing and you listen to me."
I've just read the texts above from a very good book. The concept is simple including the conversation. It happened in real life actually.
Listening to the ones we love is just one way of showing our love for them but we usually neglect it specially when we are busy.
What can you say on the story above? What are your ways of showing love to your love ones.

As a mother of 3 small boys ages 5,3 and 9 months, I have always been worried that one of them would feel like I didnt love them as much. Even during my last pregnancy, I worried about how would I be able to show each of my sons the love and attention they deserved.
My oldest son is in school so when he is gone I spend the majority of the day with my 2 younger sons. My 3 year old and I use the time that my baby naps as our time together. We play, read or do some sort of craft. When my baby is awake, i make sure he is held whe he wants to be, and am there when he needs comforting. When my oldest is home from school, I make sure to ask him how his day is and really pay attention to his response. I try to take each of my boys for a day with mommy, where we spend the day together, while my family watches the other 2 while I take 1 for a day with me.

Your kids are lucky to have a Mom like you.Mothers are the ones who usually make a child experience the first love in his/her life.
Spending time with someone you love is also an advisable action in showing love. Time is priceless. You can't buy time. You can't save it. And you can't look for it when it's gone.

Its so true. I remember when I was young, my mother did not spend that much time with my sister and I. I remember how it felt, not to have that connection. I do not want my sons feeling that. My mom tries sometimes to do something with us now, but it really doesnt make up for that time we lost out on.
