I enjoy this girl so much - she is funny and feisty and friendly. Her extroverted self pushes me outside my introverted comfort zone on a daily basis. She makes mundane tasks like grocery shopping fun. Lately, no matter whether she's being sweet or whiny, I just want to bottle her up. I am fiercely savoring our moments together in these last weeks with life as we know it.
Today I bottled up this moment at the park (in sunshine!): Viv flitted like a butterfly from the swings, to the curly slide to the fast slide to the rocking horse, all the while saying hello to other kids, falling in the sand, (whining), getting up again and asking if we can bring a picnic next time.

Tears...
- Because Miss Viv is so beautiful and grown-up in this picture that it took my breath away.
- Because your words bring back so many memories of how I was feeling at the end of my pregnancy with P. The joy not overshadowed by the bittersweet, by any means, but still bittersweet.
And, yes... a picnic is a great idea, Viv! :-)
