Lil' Miss

I remember this clearly.

And then, just a little over four years ago, she made her grand entrance.

She keeps us on our toes.  She is THE girliest of girls.  Loves princesses and purple, long hair and dresses. When a smile spreads across her little round face, people are helpless... They are under her spell.

Recently I overheard this conversation she was having with her oldest brother, who will soon turn EIGHTEEN.  Lord help me.

"Do you hab a girlfriend?"

"No."

"Ahhh... I wish you hab a girlfriend."

"Why?"

"Because, she be so pawitty.  She hab orange hair here, and pupo hair here and red hair here.  Wit parkot (sparkles).  Then she hab gode eyes.  Oh.. and purpo nail here and purpo toe nail here.  Soooo paawitty...."

Hard to believe my baby girl is now four.   The days may be long, but the years are short, my friends. So soak it all in.  Every purpo sparkly moment....
