I prayed over her last night.
She gently kissed me on the cheek, then squeezed me tight.
She asked for a glass of water, then told me she loved me.
She woke up this morning. I watched her make a mess all around me.
I wiped the milk from her cereal, and watched her wash her hands,
She danced, and I watched.
She sang, and I watched.
She took a deep approving breath, over what she made with her tiny hands. And I watched.
As she got dressed, I went into my room and cried.
She came in and asked me what was wrong,
I responded that everything she does is so right.
She didn’t understand, but my baby, this little child, rubbed my back and consoled me.
I walked her to the car. She pointed out the clouds, and the animals she saw in them.
She sang songs in the back seat, as I tried not to stare at how beautiful she was in my rear view mirror.
I cried, quietly into my hands.
I walked her to her classroom, then I prayed she be safe. Kissed her. Watched her walk away from me.
This morning she woke up.
This morning she woke up. and I watched her breathe.
This morning she woke up. and I thanked God.
The Little things mean so much more.
