Ever since Ava was born, I’d just look at her amazing face and blurt out “I love you, baby.” I’ve done this all the time ever since. I don’t want to be frugal with that word.

Well, today we’re driving, A’s listening to her songs and singing, and I’m just doing my thing, thinking too much, trying not to cry… etc.

The song stops, and she blurts out of no where: “I yove eww mommy.”

Someone said to me yesterday: Don’t get so caught up with the one in the bush that you forget about the one in the hand.

Thank you (both) for that reminder.

Anyone else grateful?
