But there is something inside of me that wants to freeze time because you wonder where all these things may lead. All the beautiful qualities that make for what will be a beautiful, strong girl also make for a young woman who will one day grow up and leave home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-35876117861583336242007-07-03T15:01:00.000-07:002007-07-03T15:01:00.000-07:00Corey what a fantastic post.I remember before M co...Corey what a fantastic post.<BR/><BR/>I remember before M could speak, E said, "I wonder what her voice will be like mummy."<BR/><BR/>It's amazing to look forward and imagine what they will be like.<BR/><BR/>Part of me can't wait, and another part just wants them to stay here and now, small and safe and mine.Jo Beaufoixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00957369658590225971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-71179512200871382912007-06-27T16:09:00.000-07:002007-06-27T16:09:00.000-07:00This was a beautiful post.

At sixteen now, I am amazed with her. In that.. star studded way, amazed at her.<BR/><BR/>She walks tall. She knows she is a daughter of God. She has values, I never would have considered at her age. Great work ethic, I couldn't have picked better friends for her. Humble at times, and a little unsure of herself a tiny amount (enough to be cautious).. But she knows who she is, and wouldn't compromise that, for anything.<BR/><BR/>I have LOVED watching her grow, and I am already in mourning that she is getting ready, to leave the nest.<BR/><BR/>I wish you the best with your daughter- It sounds like she is fantastic too-<BR/><BR/>May she flourish.Lisa M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01015215401481176075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3817728686717244104.post-87971101845911551472007-06-27T12:06:00.000-07:002007-06-27T12:06:00.000-07:00It CAN be scary and exciting at the same time.

I can give you a glimpse of the future as seen through my eyes and of my daughters: they are still true to their original character and will powers of their little 2 year old hearts. It's amazing! They are so different now yet so the same at heart! You should have no worries.

You've got me thinking about qualities I don't want my little boy to give up. <BR/><BR/>I'll go with curiosity, determination and (not to copy you) love.

I should take a page from your book and do the same sometime for Maya. <BR/><BR/>And as always, I'll just say - what a fabulous Mama you are! *hugs*Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15289135829751255458noreply@blogger.com
