When she laughs

Tonight while she was taking a bath, Sylvia gave a peal of laughter that just made my heart sing.

That girl. When she is happy, she reminds me of the king in the book The Quiltmaker’s Gift whose laugh, “Could make green apples fall and make flowers turn his way.”

I found myself musing about what an amazing experience it may be for someone to fall in love with my little Sylvia. I have a feeling that she will someday turn someone’s world upside down. Life is more vibrant when it’s lived through Sylvia’s lens.

My girl has great powers. And her little self brings such joy to my soul.

  1. Yes you do write very well Althea and what lovely things to say about your sweet one. Maybe you should consider writing in your career path. And I loved the sweet interchange between you and Bryan.
