Daughter: "Mommy, who is your best friend EVER?" Beat Me: "Daddy is." Daughter: "That was the wrong guess. I'll give you another try. Here. She's four years old and she's beautiful and she's amazing. Now can you guess?" But I'll just say that if she wants to deem me her best friend for life, I'll take it.
Well said.

From the mouth of my babe.
Just now, as I walked up the stairs, worn down beyond belief, and collapsed onto my bed with a huge sigh, my daughter followed me, climbed up next to me, and said, "Sometimes you just have a bad day. Sometimes things are hard. But they get easier." And then, I thought, "She is more mature than most of ...
The Magnificent Seven, The Son Edition.
Looking back, I found the note I wrote to my daughter when she turned seven months, a love letter detailing milestones in her life and expressing my profound love.
