Sarah is expensive, ... private school, webkins etc. She demands so much of my time, ..."can we please play mancala?" , ...."you said I could help you" , ...."mom, can you please watch me do this". Still, Sarah brings so much pleasure to my life. It does not matter that I have had a difficult day at work once I see her smile. She doesn't walk towards me in the afternoons, she runs. "Mommy, I missed you." There will come a time in the not too distant future when I will not be very important to her but for now I am her best friend and I will cherish every moment that we have to share this bond.
She dressed herself for this "princess" photo, she may need a fashion
lesson in a few years.
She enjoyed our last camping trip, regardless of the rain.
