As we left for this trip our girl cried…a lot.
Over the last year or two whenever we are separated from
her she seems to be heartbroken and cries from the very bottom of her little
soul.As sad as it is for us to see her this way it is also the
sweetest thing ever.
She is so sweet and today I had so many thoughts about
her and so much gratitude:
For the way I asked her if she would do a Christmas list
and she said “I did-it says Rabbit” Awww sweetie..I really don’t want a smelly
rabbit I am so sorry!!!
And for the way she changes her earrings so often now all
by herself. We could both look at her all day long.
For the way she is so creative and so artsy and so
competent. For the ways she never gets bored and always finds something to do.
For the little pad we have between us on the counter at
Trent. Where she and I write little notes back and forth in the Paul Frank
container.
For the way that sometimes she lets us sleep in and makes
her own toast in the morning.
For her AMAZING kisses and hugs. Seriously the best ever.
For the way her Dad is her hero. She loves him more than
life itself and she tries to make it fair to me too. But he is her hero and he
should be.
And for the way her heart breaks for us when we go
although she knows we will come back soon to her. She cries but understands how
important this time alone is for us. She gets it and respects it.
I love that she has not committed us for not buying a
future veterinarian a pet. Even a fish. Or a rabbit. One day ok????!!! Thanks
for forgiving us Beauty! We will get our act together one day soon on this. Just not on Christmas.
And for the girl she has always been and the little woman
she is becoming.
I love how each moment we willingly and deliberately get
closer and closer.
I am excited for all the places we will go together.
Goodnight my beautiful girl. I love you forever and a day
and so does Daddy.
Can’t wait to go to JB together and your party soon! Hope
there were no boys at the sleepover!!!! Wink-winkJ))
Facetime next week-yahooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
