October lessons about my daughters.

My daughters are

anxious and affluent in love.

My daughters are

boisterous and beautiful.

My daughters are

curious and campy.

My daughters are

devoted to their daddy.

My daughters are

energetic and exhausting (for mommy).

My daughters are

feisty and fun.

My daughters are

gorgeous and genuine.

My daughters are

holders of my heart.

My family makes me realize this month that I will always miss my mom. It’s not about making muffins from scratch or knowing how to get applesauce out of a favorite shirt. It’s about love and lots of it.

  1. Well said! My one daughter is all of those things too (my other daughter is too small to be anything more than a sweet little peanut these days but I’m sure she will be just as awesome). And yes, it really is about love isn’t it.

  2. Aw, this is beautiful.

    And I’m so sorry about your mom. I lost my dad at 16, and I don’t think that it’s something that you ever really recover from, although my circumstances were very different.
