DADDY, I Love You to the Moon and Back!

Daddy asked, “How much do you love me?”

Little boy replied, “DADDY, I love you to the moon and back! Then will you bring me to Marina Barrage with my friends please?”

Daddy enquired, “When?”

Little boy answered, “On 19 June 2015. My teacher told me that we will be having a Father’s Day celebration there. She also mentioned that we can fly kites, blow bubbles, kick balls and scoot around.”

Daddy smiled and kissed the litle boy while whispering, “Certainly.”
