Breathless

My child

my first

has this amazing quality 

to melt my heart.

One moment she’s my crazy four year old and then all at once she looks at me and I just stare at this beautiful creature Matt and I created. She’s just stunning, beautiful both inside and out.  She’s caring, creative, energetic, compassionate and passionate all in this tiny little package.  I see this picture and it reminds me that she’s growing…fast! On one side I’m sad that her once toddler face is slowly shifting to young girl features but on the other side… I have to pat myself on the back!  She definitely has a great foundation under her and I know we’ve done a great job helping her identify herself.  What will the next 5 or so years bring?  Well, I’m sure it’ll be some great things but in the mean time I’m going to focus on the now and enjoy every second.
