song writer



Yesterday:

"Mom, do you want to hear the song I wrote?"

"You wrote a song!?" I asked in total surprise.

To believe in yourself...
know that you can do anything you dream of doing,
without waiting for a class,
certification,
piece of paper,
or expert to tell you that you are enough...

that is what I am supposed to teach her,
yet that is exactly what she teaches me...
over and over and over again.

She wrote her second song today.

braces


It has been two and a half years... here
to say she was excited to have her braces removed would be an understatement!
