What it's all about....
Last night I went over to Erin's...
Mainly to be with him and do some 'healing work'. I got to spend time with the kids too. Notably K- his 8-year-old daughter.
Well it seems K- had a project due about 'bartering' for school. She was to pick out something to take to school to 'trade' for something else with one of her classmates.
So dad suggested she go down in the basement to get perhaps a puzzle to take in - but instead K- and i went upstairs to her room to look for something.
She went through some of her items and at one point she picked up a little plastic bracelet. I asked her if she wanted to trade that and she said: 'No C -, you gave this to me'.
I told her it was OK that when someone gives you a present you are allowed to do with it as you please.
She then said: 'But I want to keep it - it reminds me of you when you are not around'
Blinking back tears I asked her if I could have a hug. She obliged.
And I am crying now too.
(We ended up making a beaded necklace and bracelet for her to exchange).
Thanks sweetie, you made my evening.

Acorns and trees M'Love. All three of us love you.
Everyday I wear the necklace you gave to me and that we had blessed together. It reminds me of you every time I look at it.
Even though it broke, I keep my "Hope" bracelet from "The Fest" on my dresser where I can see it.
not the same, mr. ohio, but still sweet. But what your daughter did, well it was preicious, and ever lasting. NOTHING will ever take that moment away ! Im so happy for you mom, I can not wait for my children to grow and have moments like that, in some way I alredy do, but not the same. Love ya mommy! <3
