Fell in Love Tonight


 

There is always that moment

That moment when your love deepens

 

And even when your love is already super deep you discover yet another layer of it .Tonight was that night for me with Beauty:) my girl


Maybe she let down her guard a bit and maybe I opened my heart a it more?

We sat at the last cruise dinner side by side and ignored the three boys. We talked and talked and talked. About boys boys and boys.. Her new interest it seems. And we just had a great time. She will miss the cruise the most as she loves travel as much as Savvy does.  She started telling me about all the places in the world she wants to go and the people and countries she wants to help. She is passionate this girl of mine. She is lit up from the inside. She sparkles.

 

Tonight I only had eyes for her

And it was reciprocal


I got a piece of her she often reserves for Daddy only. It really was an important night I felt it in every bone of my body.  A slight but critical shift This precious and unstructured time allowed it on fully.

As I head back to work soon... one less everyday friend there, I keep searching for the sign or gift left behind that will make it feel ok?

Tonight I think I found it in the heart of my child. The child that made a difference for her in her own life in her own way... A new chapter has begun.

Love you Trouble!!! (Her nickname... Used to be mine years ago at work and now I am sharing it with her)


My  tiny heart birthmark near my heart is for you little beauty trouble. Thanks for making the cruise worth every single penny. I am so excited for your alone trip. I will count down the days for that bonding and special time together a year from now
