The Little Moments.

This morning at about 6:00 a.m., like many mornings before it, I awoke to the sound of my little girl asking me if she could go sit at my desk and color.

Of course, sleep being my favorite pastime, I agreed.

I always do.

She is quite the little smarty pants.

Not a moment goes by without a question of, "What does __ number plus __number equal"

Last night we even got a fraction. "What does 4 over 5 plus 6 over 7 equal?"

But mostly we get," How do you spell __________"

Those being a few of the questions in her never ending quest for knowledge.

I am grateful.

Yet this morning, half asleep, I can only remember " Mommy, how do you spell AND?"

"Paige can't this wait until I wake up? This isn't the best time to ask me how to spell.......It's A-N-D. Ok? Please wait until I am out of bed next time, I'm half asleep."

I didn't give my words much thought.

For all I knew I was dreaming.

Yet.....tonight as I got ready to go lie in bed and read my book, I noticed a piece of paper folded up on my nightstand.

I opened it.

She spelled it all perfectly.

Well.........everything looks perfect in my eyes.

P.S. I decided to leave her a little note for when she wakes up. I hope it makes her heart as happy as she does mine....and a little Hershey kiss won't hurt either. ♥
