c.r. in ink: One night, when I was still living \ with my mother, she told me that \ it was time for me to go to bed. \ That she had a suprise [sic] to give me \ when she came to tuck me in. \ I waited eagerly for my suprise [sic]. \ When she came in and I asked for \ it, she bent over, kissed me, and \ said, "I Love You". \ I wonder if my dissappointment [sic] \ was because I couldn't make \ myself believe her?
