I love you MORE than chocolate.

The 11 year old boy sits up in his bed, his eyes wide. His 14 year old sister comes into the room saying, "Did I hear you right? You love him more than coffee, more than tea, more than wine, and even more than bacon?!? And what about me?" I smile, but I'm thinking hard.

The boy looks earnest. "Yeah mom... how much do you love me, I mean 'us'...?"

And I say:


And here's the mug to prove it.


Get it NOW, for the one you love, cuz Valentine's Day is coming!

Love someone more than bacon? I gots more love mugs in my Zazzle Shop. Oh and there's 15% off sale. Yay!

Do you play "how much do you love me?" games with your kids? This story is part of a short series that starts here. Stay tooned to find out what happens next...

  1. Did you specify white chocolate, milk chocolate or dark chocolate? There are many things I love more than white chocolate (which, by the way, isn't *really* chocolate). Milk chocolate weeds out many things and only a few items/people rank higher than dark chocolate.

    I'm beginning to think that you should make a version of this for parents. "My Kids Love Me More than..." Some suggestions: Pizza, Mac & Cheese, PB&J's.

  2. You got me with "I love you more than peanut butter."

    My son would be, "I love you more than chicken nuggets."
