With much comfort, she let me wash and put ointment (药膏) on her knees. I kissed her and asked, “All better now, sweetie?”
“No, Grandma. You must say the Mommy words.” she said. I didn’t know what she meant. Then she added, “You know, Grandma. Mommy says them to make me feel better.” Emily took a deep breath and started to recite (吟诵), “A little kiss, a little hug, I give you these, with all my love...”
