Graham Cracker Love

In the summer of 2010.  Me and Al were sitting on my swing together reading books and Cassidy was in the pool.  I had brought out graham crackers and juice for Al.  I had already made several trips into the house for books and snacks. So when Alec dropped his graham cracker on the ground, I asked Cassidy to go get him a new one.  She said No, I said please, she said No, I said come on please it will only take a second.  She finally agreed. So off she went in the house, she was gone for awhile, alot longer than it takes to get a graham cracker.  So me and Al were saying to each other, "Where is that girl ?,  What takes her so long ? , we were being silly together and wondering what in the world she was doing that was taking so long.  Then she finally came out and handed Al his graham cracker and said,   "Here Al, flip it over".  So I took his graham cracker and flipped it over and it said,  "I Love You Al" on it. It was carved into it.  My eyes filled up, it was the sweetest most loving thing to do for her brother.  I told Al what it said , and he said  "Awww that's so sweet" and he yelled  , "Thanks Taa".   She said your welcome,  just like it was no big deal.  She said  "It took me so long because I had to get a toothpick so I could carve I love you into it, it was hard to do".  Me and Al were so mushy that she did this , and then we realized that is what took her so long. 
It still amazes me and melts my heart,   this is  special love .
