A precious gift.
And may I say...
Isn't it sweet to nurture this love of words--that you love--in your child? And don't you imagine that all the struggles in your life,maybe, just maybe...maybe they helped this nurturing be so complete?
the gift goes on...
i know that place--my girls have sat there many times! =)
Gift and mentor - how soon do we begin to mentor each other, what a blessing a life long relationship can be - rare, probably - but a gift. Two little girls, young women, sharing - a beautiful vision.
Lovely!
beauty full
It seems that a whole book of poetry could be written from that place. Makes one breath :-)
