Oh, I know. I was just saying that there sometimes seems to be this "if you can't say you love someone then if you do admit love it's way stronger than the love of someone who says the words" idea.
Though I would tend to agree as this pertains to any Tom Dick or Harry (or Thomasina or Dickette or Harriet) who comes along (you know the type: Oh, I LOVE you. Oh wait. No. I love this guy or that guy. I love this chair. I love this streetlamp) I think that when it comes to family, verbalizing or not verbalizing...the meaning isn't lessened by saying it "too much" and even not saying it at all.
We are very lucky people to have family we know we love, we know loves us.
Speaking of verbalizing: I have no idea how to say what I'm trying to say. This was my best effort.
