Her

In the last two weeks, she

• has upgraded to a big girl bike with brakes and ridden it on the railroad turned walking/biking trail and raced George
• practiced her Cubbie verse and said it at the Awana closing in front of all those Moms, Dads, and kids
• participated in our Mission Sunday parade.

Only in my mind is she still my baby. Oh, I am so proud of her. Of being her Mom. Of counting her among my favorite people. Indeed, she is a reward, though I can't seem to find a reason I would deserve her. So I'll just revel in the gift.
