I Love You All Day Long - This was such a good one to read with River as she went off the Kindergarten. Owen is anxious about being away from his Mommy. A comforting tale of how a parent's love stays with a child whether they are together or apart -- all day long. All Owen has to do is remember that she'll love him "all day long." She loves him when he does well and when he makes mistakes and accidents. River asks me at the end of the book....so.....do you love me even when I'm grouchy? Hhhmmmm......so.....do you love me even when I'm angry?
