So, we’re in the process of sprucing up the girls rooms since they’ve moved on and no longer share their spaces with each other. I asked Edie what she wanted in her room and this was her response:
I want a pink and red room. Pink because it’s sweet. Like me. And red because it’s hot like fire. Like me, too.
Ummm, well, when you put it like— sure, kid. You got it.
I am equal parts thrilled for and terrified of the moment when this girl becomes fully aware of the force of nature that she is and begins to utilize the power within her. Lord, help us all.
