Do you know what the best medicine is?
This was the question my five-year-old asked me a couple of nights ago. She came bounding into the room and stood in front of me and asked me, "Do you know what the best medicine is, Mommy?" I said, "no, my dear, what is the best medicine?" Then she gave me a hug and said, "Love, Mommy. Love is the best medicine!" Then she hugged me again and said, "I just love you so much, Mommy!"
That little conversation made my whole day. It's amazing how kids can squeeze your heart strings like that and make you feel like a million bucks!
So, this blog post is dedicated to my wonderful, darling, five-year-old (going on twenty!) You, my precious, little princess, are the twinkle in my eye, the butter on my toast, the sunshine on my shoulder, and the breath in my lungs. You make my sad days happy and my hard days worth every moment! I love you to the moon, past the sun, past the stars, and to infinity and beyond!
