My 1ish year old daughter comes downstairs every night before my wife puts her to bed. She finds me for a hug and says "' 'nigh' " and then toddles off to bed. I would build the largest pile of bodies to protect that cute innocence.
That right there is why we live.
The childless cannot truly understand the full stakes of what we're fighting for.
My boys are grown up and thriving on their own. I enjoyed every moment with them. Treasure what you have with your daughter even at her worst moments. It’s truly amazing. Terrible twos? I enjoyed every moment and miss my little children.
My 1.5-ish daughter said "ow" the other night after twirling in the kitchen with her two older sisters and then bumping into the fridge. So darn cute!
