I Love You When You're Dirty
by Shelli Rotunda

I love you when you're dirty,
and I love you when you're clean.
And I love you when you're nice,
and I love you when you're mean.
And I love you when you're happy,
and I love you when you're sad.
And I love you when you're peaceful,
and I love you when you're mad.
My special kids know and love this poem. They make up their own verses whenever they need to express or ask for unconditional love. It eases some of the frustrations that our crazy life brings.
