rosy red cheeks and pony tails

She has the sweetest cheeks. Rosy red like her dad's.

And that pony tail. That precious little pony tail.

They brighten up my days in ways I cannot explain.

Madelyn is growing and learning and soaking in everything around her. I cannot believe how quickly she has become this walking, talking, thriving little girl.

She is so full of life. She loves easily. Forgives and forgets quickly. And looks at each new day with fresh eyes.

I want to be more like her. I want others to see life in me. To know that I love easily. Forgive quickly. And approach each new day with a fresh outlook.

Thanks, Madelyn for being an example to me.

Love you,
Mom
