One of the Joys of being a parent, as a lot of you know, is following the traits that grow in your child. I get butterflies when I see Morgan tilt her head just like Alec, or sleep with her mouth open in an almost snore like him. I love Maddie's ability to change the subject when she does not want to answer a question. But it is so much harder to find things like me in them, besides Morgan's favorite phrase: "how-a-you". They grow up so fast and just today I read how having kids is like holding up a mirror to yourself. And it is true, you see yourself grow up with them, learn with them, grow with them:)
Two little girls and a world of beauty.
Two little girls and a world of sorrow
Two little hands folded in prayer,
Two little arms holding days of tomorrow
Two Little, too old
Two Wise, two young.
Waiting, Watching, Holding,
Fighting, Breathing, Sleeping,
Crying Dreaming, Laughing,
and Screaming
and Looking up to tomorrow...
