Smotherlylove

Created by: splendiction

Pronunciation: SMOTH er ly love

Sentence: He still needed her help! She often imagined her son still small enough to hold like a baby. In fact, she could recall the day he was born as if it were just nineteen days ago! Rob felt smotherlyloved and complained bitterly to her, but looked forward to her daily calls just the same. For gawd sakes: he was thirty-nine-eleven...so why was she still asking him things like, had he eaten any greens lately or, did he still have that watch she gave him?!
