a note to Eva

Eva,

At five years old, you’re our little wild woman - so full of energy and enthusiasm that we have to reign you in a lot of times! You also have something of a politician in you … often trying to talk your way out of situations rather than simply obeying and being done with it. But you bring us much laughter and joy, and today you did something really special. Without Mommy or Daddy asking you to, you came quietly into the living room after your nap (where Mommy was nursing a fever and sore throat on the couch) and began to pick up all of your brother’s little toys. You carefully picked up every single one without saying a word until you were all done. I was so proud of you, and I told you so! Just when I think you’ll be “wild” forever, God gives me an inside look at the sweet mama you will be someday.

I love you, sweetie!

Mommy 03.29.06
