"...And Max the king of all wild things was lonely and wanted to be where someone loved him best of all. Then all around from far away across the world he smelled good things to eat so he gave up being king of where the wild things are. But the wild things cried, "Oh please don't go- we'll eat you up- we love you so!" And Max said, "No!" The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws but Max stepped into his private boat and waved good-bye and sailed back over a year and in and out of weeks and through a day and into the night of his very own room where he found his supper waiting for him- and it was still hot." Maurice Sendak - Where the Wild Things Are

 

This is for my mom, when I was young she would read Where the Wild Things Are pretty much every night. She had it memorized. Going back and reading it now, It impacts me so much. I get to the last 4 pages and start to tear up.

 

I love her. A lot.

 

And I know that I'll always have somewhere where I can be loved best of all.
