Secret languages

My hubby and I used to have a secret language when we were dating. It was in letters that we wrote each other when he moved away my junior year of high school. I laugh now that I read them because I can't believe that I had so much influence on my husband to change the way he spoke to me! My husband is not that type of man; he's too cool for that! He calls me the nerd of the two, which I am, but that's beside the point. Anyways, I told him one day that I had a cousin who had super fat cheeks and I loved squeezing his face in and making him say "peaches". Well, that became our secret word meaning "more". He used to write me like 5 sentence letters (my husband is not a writer) but he would send me a 3 page letter with the words "I love you more....PEACHES. It was/is the sweetest thing ever.

Now, we don't do that so much to each other, but my kids take after their mama for sure. My son and I have a "who loves each other more" contest. Our conversation is as follows: Me-I love you. Mikey-I love you more; me-I love you much much more; Mikey- I love you to infinity and beyond; me-I love you to infinity and beyond plus one; Mikey-I love you to infinity and beyond plus superman and spiderman and the incredible hulk....
...Needless to say, this list gets pretty long. But it's a special thing my son and I share.

Now my daughter doesn't even give me a chance...she tells me I love her and I say it back then to end it quickly she says: "I luv you more than nap" and she goes away as if to say "that's it". (She takes after the daddy) I love our secret languages that we have. It something that I am going to cherish forever.
