I thought - that, yes, THAT, is why we are parents, how we know to be fully alive.<br /><br />And then I went away a few days and came back to find you being fully alive - for better or for worse - with all of us. You are brave, and beautiful, and imperfect. <br /><br />And I loved re-reading this with all the history that has passed between.MrsNilsenLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00234000581705376782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-462728671028708590.post-91293143512088098152010-12-27T19:49:43.775-06:002010-12-27T19:49:43.775-06:00Lovely.... it moves in many ways reading this. tha...Lovely.... it moves in many ways reading this. thank you for sharingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-462728671028708590.post-24788093107314067922010-12-27T19:07:20.351-06:002010-12-27T19:07:20.351-06:00I'm so glad that you shared this again, since ...I'm so glad that you shared this again, since I missed it not knowing you the first time.

I can't wait until my boys are old enough that we can have that breathless moment at the bottom of the hill and the ensuing laughter.
