The first real lie I've told my kids...

My son, J: What are you making daddy?

Me: I'm making pasta. You gonna eat some when I am done?

J: Yeah.

Me: Go play your game. I'll call you when it's ready.

*some time passes*

Me: Hey, it's ready. Come eat guys.

J: (sitting at table) Yum. This is good daddy.

Me: Hell yeah it's good. It's one of my favorite foods.

J: It's your favorite food?

Me: No, pizza is my favorite food. But this is one of my favorites.

J: (takes a bite) I love you, daddy.

Me: lol I love you too bud.

J: Do you love A (my daughter)?

Me: Of course. I love you both more than anything and anybody else in the world.

J: (smiles) Do you love mommy?

Me: (stutters and stammers and pauses for minute).... ....

J: Do you love mommy?

Me: Uh, yeah.

How the hell do you answer a question like that?
