Some books are just bedtime stories. Others hit you in the gut in the best possible way. Love You Forever by Robert Munsch is one of those books.
It’s simple. It’s sweet. And it’s the kind of story that sneaks past your logical brain and heads straight for your heart. Mai Boys are 7–10 years old now, and every time I read it to them, my eyes still “sweat.” Every. Single. Time.
The beauty of this book is how it captures the messy truth about parenting- that we can love our kids with every ounce of our being even on the days when they’re loud, stubborn, and testing every last nerve we have. Parenthood is this wild mix of fierce love and occasional frustration, and Love You Forever puts that in such simple, beautiful words.
I’ve given this book to all my new mommy friends because it’s more than a story, it’s a reminder. Even when the house is loud, the laundry’s piled up, and you’ve said “brush your teeth” for the hundredth time, that love never wavers. Our kids will always be our babies, no matter how big they get or how much they push our buttons.
If you’ve never read it, do yourself a favor and grab a copy. Whether it’s for your own shelf or as a gift, it’s the kind of book that stays with you. It’ll make you laugh, it’ll make you cry, and it’ll remind you exactly why parenthood, chaos and all, is so worth it.
