The last 24 hours have been strange. I obviously have a lot on my mind, but I also have quite a bit of grief coursing through my veins. The last day has been emotionally raw and quite painful, really.
But, on the other side of that coin is my immensely caring daughter. She is a complete empath. It amazes me to see such a trait in someone so small. But, she is a very feeling person. I have really recongized it in her interactions with other kids. It might be why she is so well liked by her peers at daycare.
mama's make the best pillows.
Skyler is always a little love bug, but over the last two days she has been a total mama's girl. She has been so cute- she has to be on me. Laying across me or on my lap. She's taken her tiny, adept hands and placed them on my face while pulling me to her and attempting to either eat me or kiss me (I choose to prefer the latter). She's made a million smiles worth a million dollars a piece just for me.
sweeter than homemade cupcakes.
Being Skyler's mom is a strange and wonderful adventure. Strange because this little person and her personality are exactly who I expected. I feel like I have always known her. And likewise, wonderful because her person and personality is exactly what I expected. She was the soul that was meant for me.
No matter what else I do in my life, this child is my manifesto. She is my gift to the world. And, she is God's gift to me.

Skyler is truly a bright light in the world of everyone who sees her or is lucky enough to have met her. You and Stew made a special little girl indeed.
I love you,
Mom
