20 “Real Life” ways to say I Love You

    It’s a small world! I stumbled upon your post this evening and just had to tell you that I took the photograph you used for #7, “Don’t let them dress themselves” at a place I used to work at a few years ago. It was “goofy dress up day” or something like that in our office, I don’t remember exactly. Just had to say it because it certainly is weird to see something familiar like that.

    My mind is boggled.
