This is beautiful, Summer, and reminds me of a quote from my favorite biblical chapter, Ecclesiastes 11:9.

Dear S,
Very sweet almost wistful prayer to keep a child a child as long as humanly possible. This period of time is so brief. Your piece is a lovely look at that fleeting moment. H🌷

Ugh. Ya got me.
I just read this to my daughter.
She said “Mommy, why are you crying?”
I kissed her forehead and said “Ahhhh you’ll see, baby girl. You’ll see....”
Thank you so much for this. Moving. Touching. TRUTH. Filled with utter brutal beautiful painful bittersweet truth.
