Dear Gracie,

My precious child, this is one evening I did not want to end (and I say that lightly since I am not sure you are actually asleep). . .From the silly games you were making up to our grocery store trip in the rain, we've had so much fun today! Tonight after dinner we all sat together and watched the Olympics. I did not think it would hold your attention, but you loved it! You kept going back and forth between daddy and me. Then you put La La in her stroller, "so she could watch, too." You sat next to her on your stool like such a good mommy ~ you are becoming such a big girl! When bedtime rolled around you told me "Not now, I'm watching the Olympics." I laughed and said "You crack me up. . ." and you replied "SANKS!" I love you so much. . .sometimes my heart feels like it is going to explode! It was so sweet to watch you curled up with Daddy on the couch ~ both of you completely content. We all (including the doggies) read your favorite book tonight laying on the rug in your room; it was the one with the heart that lights up at the end. You absolutely loved it when we made it completely dark so all you could see were the sparkling lights. You have the most precious giggle that comes out when we have these "family moments". There is nothing that makes you happier than when we are all together, with out any distractions, cuddling and playing. I hope you know how much joy you bring in to our lives. I pray every day that I will me the momma that you need and deserve. . .
Thank you Lord for this day; nothing unusual, but such a blessing!
