One Moment

I saw KZ walking on the other side of the street yesterday.

She didn't see me.  In one hand she was holding the hand of her cousin Kara who is also four.  In the other, she held her stuffed puppy Bella.  She looked so happy and confident -- such a big little girl. Jeremy was right behind them.  He didn't see me either. 

It was as if I were watching part of my life walk by.  It made me proud and yet sad.  Proud because she is so happy and confident.  Sad because life moves so quickly.  We are all so busy doing a thousand different things that make up life, that we rarely see how precious that life is.  I'm glad I got that moment... gray t-shirt, with a black kitty wearing a pink bow on front, blue jeans, pink sparkly shoes, her puppy Bella ...

my baby KZ.
