my heart remembers what my head can't

I wish there was a way to capture the special moments we share together. Yes, I take a million pictures and videos but no matter how many shots I get I don't feel they accurately convey the love I have for you and the fun I have with you.

Today for instance, when you were laughing hysterically because I flung oatmeal off of the spoon and said a bad word (not my finest parenting moment). Clearly, I should not be repeating bad words but every time I said it you just laughed so hard. I realized quickly that a child-friendly substitute would get the same result so I felt a little bit better about the situation. 

There's no getting a picture of that, no video can capture the joy I get when you laugh so hard. 

There are so many moments we share that I am terrified I will forget but there's absolutely no way that my head can contain all the joy you bring. There is no way that my memory is big enough to easily allow me to recall all of our moments. I hate that. Thankfully, my heart remembers and every single time I look at you my heart remembers it all. I might not be able to tell you about every single time you made me laugh but my heart will remember it all. 

You have brought and continue to bring me so much joy. Sure, it's not without some struggles, but my goodness, you're an amazing little girl. We are blessed. I am blessed. You fill my heart.

I love you sweet girl

Seriously, look at that face!
