Forever Mine

I was putting L down to bed tonight, and as is usually the case on Sunday nights with the new work-week looming over me, I was a little discouraged and maudlin about how little I'll get to see the kids over the week.
"L," I told her, "I sure hope you grow up to be a big girl who will love her Daddy all her life."
"Daddy," she answered, perfectly seriously, "I want to stay just this small for a long, long, long time so I can be with my Daddy. Then maybe later I'll get bigger."
