"I may be the only kiss they get on the forehead for who knows how long. I may be the only 'I love you' they get. I can see it in their eyes and it's not me making that up.

It's like, alright, no one gets that excited for swimming lessons, you know. It's like you're excited to see me and I'm excited to see you."
