Tonight my girly and I went on a neighborhood walk. We ended up at a little pond with a fountain near the lake. The weather outside was perfect. Not hot at all. We kicked off our shoes and sat and talked for a while. Then she explored a bit as I sat and watched her - amazed at how much she has grown and changed. I sang John Denver songs, and then we laid in the grass and visited. How long has it been since you laid in the grass? It had been a while for me, and I found it to be refreshing. Very natural. We laid there for a while and talked about what her hopes and dreams are for her upcoming birhday. I can't believe that she is about to be 11! While we were laying there, the sun set and the moon appeared in the sky. It was beautiful. Peaceful. Perfect!

I love that you two had this time together. It sounds perfect! I look forward to the times that Claire and I will have moments like these...for now I will just enjoy singing "The Wheels on the Bus" over and over and over. I love you and Allie Cat!
I could almost feel the grass and see the moon. Thank you for sharing such rich and wonderful memories Amy; memories that are fresh off the press. Priceless!! I love that you and Allie got to spend some time together... just the two of you and I pray she remembers, as you will, how very special those times were. You are blessed that you have documented so much of your lives through journals, scrapbooks, letters, and blogs.
