These days I seem to remember a lot. The day she was born; the day she crawled;
and how easily she started to walk before she reached her 10 months. I recall so clearly how the tiny bit of hair
turned golden around her sweet face. The
way she pronounced words that ended in d – dad became dash, mad became
mash. It was so special. To this day we remind her when she was
learning her alphabet and numbers. She
would adamantly explain the difference: ‘this
is a letter and this is a lumber!’
My beauty is now a young lady; so full of promise and life. So smart; with a dry sense of humor like
me. And she’s also kind. She’s giving and generous; but she’s never
boastful. I have never heard her tell me
or anyone about a good deed she has done.
How she may have helped someone or given advice or shared of what she
had. I hear it from her friends, or
maybe her teachers. Sometimes from an
adult who may have witnessed it. And I
thank God for her. I thank God for her
young heart. I thank God for my gift
from heaven. I can’t wait to see her
beautiful life unfold.
