Breanna’s like a little monkey; always climbing on or over something, pulling hair, or exploring the items just beyond her little reach. It’s truly amazing to watch, but sometimes it can be a little frustrating if you’re the mountain she’s trying to climb.

Watching her makes me wonder if I was like that when I was a little girl. Were my sisters like that when they were little girls, too? So curious, so playful, so amazing.

It almost breaks my heart that one day Breanna will grow up and lose so much of the spark that makes children wonderful. If I have anything to say about it, I’ll be sure to help keep that spark alive a long as I possibly can. In fact, she’s helping me to rediscover it for myself.

Gosh, I can’t wait for the fairy phase when she starts believing in mythological creatures and stuff.
