Now We Are Six

When I was one I had just begun
When I was two I was nearly new

When I was three I was hardly me
When I was four I was not much more

When I was five I was just alive
But now I am six, I'm as clever as clever;

So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever. - A.A. Milne

My dear girl... You are as clever as ever, blowing my mind every day with the wisdom you whisper before you fall asleep each night while we cuddle and chat a little. I really feel like "we" are six because I am growing each step of the way and you teach me so much, each year seems like my "this is my favorite age" but then you show me there is so much more. I love that you are calling your own shots now, making decisions and feeling strong in who you are to be. You are going to be strong, wild, full of adventure and so full of love - you already are... I am watching you every step of the way and rooting for this world to be yours. Light it on fire, my love!
