Although my son is 14 and my daughter will be 16 in 2 weeks, the children's book 'I Love You More' written by Laura Duksta still sits on my sons shelf, granted it is in his closet now but when I feel the need to bond a bit, I still take it out. The beauty of this book is there are two parts to it, one part is read by the mother and the other by the child. It was given to my son as a gift when he was 2 years old and this book was so exciting to him as a child. When one part is done you turn the book over for the next part. He once told me he would never get rid of this book because it would mean the end of his childhood! Yes, I cried..
