we are staying up near yosemite this weekend while my husband is the speaker at a high school snow retreat. our cabin isn't too far from where we eat, but enough that we typically would walk together (children with adult). this morning, however, i let my dd express her 8 year oldness a little more. as Ocean walked out the cabin door *by herself* to go meet dad . . . our conversation went something like this. sleepily from the bed i said , "o, i love you." she turned around looking back at me with a pause and this reply, "i love you too, thanks for letting me do this."
she is my morning dove. so sweet and snugglie. thoughtful and kind. always ready to take on the day no matter what time her eyes open each morning.
i hope a little of this will rub off on me. i want to be more like my daughters in so many ways, they each teach me so much. love.
