You Make My Heart Sing

This is an e-mail I got this afternoon from Moira's kindergarten teacher, about our beautiful little girl, and I just had to share it here:

Janelle,

How, oh, how can you let her leave you daily? She is the funniest thing I have ever seen! Everyday she is just so cute! Yesterday we were talking about all the reindeer names, when I got to Vixen she said,"Oooo I like that name." and then said the same thing about Blitzen, "Ooo I like that one too." And you know how her little eyes light up when she gets excited. On Tuesday, she sat with me on the bench outside, she asked me what I wanted to talk about and then we both said what we wanted. Then another little girl came and sat with us and Moira told the girl that we had been talking about birthdays and recalled everything we said and then asked the girl "What would like to talk about?" The little girl was off in her answer, like maybe she didn't understand what Moira was saying and Moira just paused, reasoned, and went on with what she was saying. She is precious.

Have a great day!
Ms. Stover


What could warm a Mother's heart more? It seems every adult that has interaction with her becomes smitten. We're so blessed with such a precious little girl, and I'm so grateful that she spends her time at school with someone who recognizes what a gift she is!

We love you more than words can say, darling Daughter!

That's so sweet of Moira's teacher!! It's nice to hear from someone else who handles our children on a daily basis what we think of our children, isn't it? For me it helps in knowing I'm doing something right in my parenting.

Indeed! And, how true, that it must make you feel very comforted and thankful that Moira's teacher appreciates her for the amazing, little girl that she is! That's truly a wonderful gift in a teacher and I'm so glad Moira's Kindergarten year is going so well!!!

Heck, I know that I'M certainly smitten with her!!! That's sweet how she described her as speaking to the other little girl, pausing, reasoning and then continuing on with what she was saying...reminds me of another lovely girl I know. ;-) Patient and caring!

Aw, thanks Dara, that means a lot! I think every Mom wishes they could muster more patience with their children, so it'd be great if she's learned even a little of that from me!! :)

PS - You know, as I sit and think about it, Moira is a lot of things: cute, funny, sweet, intelligent... the list goes on. But, you know the most important thing that I want to nuture in her? That sweet, caring, gentle spirit that makes her so darn special. I hope she never loses that!!

Aww...how sweet is that?! It's so nice when we get to hear the positive things about our kids instead of just the negative things. Sounds like she's got a very nice teacher. TFS!

Hey! How come nobody talks about her wonderful dad and the positive influence he has on her? Huh? What's goin' on here?!
