As most of you know I love my daughter very very much and have fought to have her close to me over the years. Along comes her daughter Amelia and I am blown away with what I wouldn't do for this kid. Jim and Laura wanted to catch a flick tonight so with Kim in Italy, I'm solo. We went shopping for an outfit and I found her a Chicago White Sox jumper...cute. We then got some chicken and headed for home. We played in the back yard for a bit and it seems that last week she decided that walking on grass wasn't as traumatic as it had been in the past. Fearless is her middle name now. She went right for the pond, climbed the rocks and waded in. She then played with our chicken, this one is so raw it's still running around, we named it "Nugget". After a few hours of play time she let me know it was bed time with the old rubbing the eyes routine. Went down without uttering a peep. Sitting down to look at today's pictures got me all weepy thinking how much I love this one. More than Laura? nope, just different.
Hard to describe.
