I just adore my little girl. She makes me laugh, she makes me feel like I am the smartest, most cuddly most lovable person on earth. She trusts me, trusts that I won't let her get hurt, that I will guide her in the right direction, keep her safe. Oh, we have our moments, but goodness me, she helps me realize the things that are most important in life....splashing in a bath, watching birds, inspecting grass, having cuddles, playing with food, letting dirt run through your fingers, playing with the fluffy tail of a dog.
Today we played at a park that had a covering of bark. Oh to watch her lift handfuls of it and let it loose over her head. Yes, she was still able to keep her title of grubbiest kiddo at the park, and I love it! After her swimming lessons she toddled into the house and straight to a waiting Bailey for a hug. We took Bay for a walk and she was so excited to hold the leash for the first time on a walk! When we got back it was all about making music with the plastic eggs I filled with rice. Who knew it would bring such enjoyment? We rocked out! Bath time consisted of splashing Bay whenever she came close enough to get wet. Bay was a good sport and there were so many laughs from the tub!
I never knew I could love another person like this. I feel like I want to be a better person, I want to do everything I can to give her the best childhood I can. I need to remember that that doesn't necessarily mean that my house has to be spotless, but it does mean that I need to be available to spend time with her. This time won't last forever and I want to soak up as much of it as possible.
