Tears will flow for this or that child thing until (I suspect) we depart this dear life. My sweet daughter, I will call her Dr. Lovely Daughter, asked me to go with her to present and defend her doctoral dissertation last October. I felt very honored. This is the same child that (also) asked me to leave her in kindergarten and go home, the first day. I wanted to ask that tiny one- go home to what? :) I can still cry about that one. I also cried after I got home from her defending her dissertation last year. There is no hope for moms. And I wonder, how did she and her bro grow up so fast? I'm just wondering. PS- I think ET is a keeper.T.

My baby brother was a helper in Vacation Bible School this summer and our pastors wife came up to us to tell us how impressed she was with him. She told us that he was quoting scripture like nobodies business and that he was wanting to learn more about helping others that didn't have anything. I cried when she told me that. ET is a giver and a lover and she will go far in life :) Oh the little children make me cry happy tears. Have a great first week at school!!!<br />~Molly PMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12735948137075598465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6945440151150745418.post-33288944449623644282009-08-10T10:39:10.551-04:002009-08-10T10:39:10.551-04:00Every time I read one of these amazing stories abo...Every time I read one of these amazing stories about ET's HUGE HEART and compassion for others I feel better about the world in general.
