Theme: You have multiple children; one of them asks, "Which one do you love more"?
How sad that curse of sibling rivalry that makes most children strive to be the best, and puts dear parents in a painful place which causes them to solve an unfair test. “Which one of us do you love more?” may ask, to put your heart and soul right on the line. Each parent's feelings certainly cannot divide unequally love so divine. Although I never had to answer this- but if I did, so they could somehow see, ask them to choose 'tween our dear pup or cat to find how hard a choice like this would be. Surely, they'd look at me with quite a stare and screech, "Mommy, we think that's so unfair!"
