That you love them?

Once a year? Have you
ever done it? Everytime you see them?

If I did that my father would do this

Rarely ever because we assume the love is already there why say it.

Isn't that sentiment only saved for long goodbyes like when leaving to go on a long holiday?

My dad is the actions speak louder than words kind of guy. Hooyo whenever I feel carried away by emotion or when she is.
Do you say I love you to your siblings?
