This is my little girl. Isn't she beautiful? Can you tell how smart she is? She's 2 in this photo. Completely potty-trained. Recognizing all her letters and writing her name. She already knew all the colors and favored pink--especially when it came to ice cream flavors.
She was very independent and wanted to do everything all by herself, except fall asleep--she did need me for that, or at least my hair. She loved to play with my hair. Finally, we got her a doll with long hair. She named her Ninevah. I think she still has her stored in the closet.
Lucy is now 15--well, next week, on the best day of the year--April 19th. She loves her birthday and the infamy that goes with it. She is still really smart and beautiful and independent. She still thinks she doesn't need me for much, but I know better. One day she'll understand. She'll have a beautiful daughter too.
Some days Lucy doesn't see how much she means to me. I need to do a better job--of showing her.
I love you Lucy.
