I love you.
You're my little man and Mammy will always love you.
Sit you down when you're sad and listen to understand and not to reply.
Show compassion even when you're going through your own strifes.
Remember that children are sponges and while they may not remember what you said at the time, it may and will surface in the future.
Show an interest in your hobbies and not just an interest on why you're getting in trouble and stating how bold you are.
