This morning, Caroline needed me to open something for her and I had to get out my scissors. She looked at me and said, “Oh Mama! I can’t wait to be big like you and use those sharp, sharp scissors!”
And I said, “Are you really going to get big? Can’t you just stay little?”
She said, “No, no I can NOT. But don’t worry, I’ll always be your baby.”
Which caused me to pick her up and squeeze her tight as my heart exploded into a million pieces.
