~Loving Conversations~

While home on summer break...

Eamon:  "Mom, can I get on the computer when you're done?"

Me:  "No."

An hour later...

Eamon:  "So, can I get on the...?"

Me:  "No!  And turn the TV off too.  Go read or something."

Another hour later...

Eamon:  <trying to sneakily turn on the TV>

Me:  "No TV."

Eamon:  <sigh>  "So then can I get on the comp...?"

Me:  "Nope."

Later that afternoon...

Eamon:  "Do you think now that I could...?"

Me:  "Sure, let me sign you on to the computer right now."

Eamon:  <throws his arms around me excitedly>  "I love you."

Me:  "You just did that because I said you could use the computer, didn't you?"

Eamon:  <smiling innocently>  "I just like hugging."

Me:  "Uh-huh..."
