Listen to My Heart: Lessons in Love, Laughter, and Lunacy

Providing an intimate look at Kathie Lee and Cody Gifford at home, a collection of charming vignettes shares their discussions on the nature of heaven, where babies come from, how baby sisters should be treated, and other topics.

Television personality Gifford (I Can't Believe I Said That) and her four-and-a-half-year-old son, Cody, here give readers a warm and fuzzy glimpse of their private conversations and how they have learned about parenting-and life-from each other. Together they talk about such things as manners; God; heaven; safety; the impending birth of Cody's sister, Cassidy; even the Power Rangers. Much of the dialogue is hopelessly cute (Cody to Mom: "Monsieur, I am Grey Poupon. I poop on this, I poop on that, I poop on everything!"), but some is surprisingly clever and even thought-provoking. When asked what is more important than love, Cody replies, "Pots and pans." Gifford is puzzled until she realizes he means that you need pots and pans to cook food, and since eating keeps you alive, it is, of course, a prerequisite to love. A short and sugary Mother's Day treat for Gifford fans. First serial to Good Housekeeping.
