Who is this little person?!?!

I look at Maggie these days & I see Joel, and a bit of me... but really I see this magical little being who is gradually becoming her own little, sweet person. It's truly amazing.

She LOVES to give hugs, and my favorite is when she runs across the room into my arms. In her tiny little voice she has a way of saying 'BYE' that makes you want to melt & stick around a few seconds longer just to hear it again. She eats ketchup like it's an actual course... and no matter how much she ends up wearing it makes me giggle every time. And her latest is imitating sounds, which she easily slips into with Joel. He mimics some electronic musical loop & she shoots it right back - although with her own twist.

It's these moments when everything slips away & I feel so incredibly whole.
