A precious moment

Tonight, while she was filling up her water bottle (when she should have been sleeping still), Hannah called to me and said quite matter-of-factly, "Mommy, you're pretty."

I replied with a sincere thank you.

She went on, "I mean, even just in your garmies... you're beautiful."
(Not true, but a sweet sentiment, and appreciated nonetheless.)

I said, "Well, thank you, sweetie."

Then she added, "Technically, it's because you're wearing your face."



No response. Just a smile and a warm fuzzy... Sometimes I'm not sure that I deserve her. I might be the luckiest Mom ever! :)
