Thankful
Each night before our prayers, I ask Lily to tell me something she is thankful for. Tonight, I asked her to tell me two things she is thankful for, but she said "I want to say ten things," so I agreed. I don't remember everything she said, but it included things such as "my friends and family," "my age because now I'm four like Sierra," "my name on the wall" (her name is spelled out on her bedroom wall) and "the eyes and scissors and Phoebe that Bama gave me." What I absolutely remember though are numbers nine and ten. She was holding my hand as we were talking, and when I said "number nine?" she replied "Your hands." When I said "thank you, and number ten?" she looked up at me and said "your beautiful, beautiful face." Talk about melting my heart! Oh, she is (one of) the sweetest little girls ever!
