I have someone in my life who always keeps me on my toes... she's ready, "YEP," to run and jump... to make sure that the baby gate isn't going to come loose... she wants to read and color and watch DVD's... put on our shoes and socks and pick leaves and flower petals...
I have someone in my life who always brings a smile to my face... when life is hard to understand, she reminds me I don't have to find all the answers, but rest in knowing I can't ... and enjoy this moment... the most unexpected kisses... the hugs I never want to end... and the giggles, even the fake ones ... the things she does that I realize later are imitations of myself... she makes me strive to be a better mom, person, wife, friend... the shoes of Mom are big..
Someone who always reminds me that I have more capacity to love than I'd ever imagined..
And here she is, my girl.. Waiting on Mom to take her to play at Adventure Zone...
That photo captures her personality... perfectly. She knows what she wants.. and knows how to get it!
