A Daughter's Love

          My parents (Gram and Pa) drove in for a weekend visit.  We are so thankful to have them in our home, and Audrey is loving every second of each day.  While Gram, Audrey and I were sitting at the dinner table tonight, I asked Audrey to tell Gram what she wanted to be when she grows up.  This beautiful conversation followed:

          Audrey said, "I want to be a Mommy when I grow up.  And a ballerina."
          Gram said, "Oh, really.  You'll be a great mommy and a great ballerina."
          Audrey then replied, "I am going to get married and be a Mommy.  I am going to marry Daddy."
          Gram smiled and said, "You're going to marry Daddy?  Do you think Daddy would be a good person to be married to?"
          Audrey simply said, "Yes."
          Gram told Audrey, "Maybe you'll find someone just like Daddy to marry when you get older."
          Audrey got a serious look on her face and said, "But there's no one else like Daddy."

          Needless to say, both Gram and I smiled, and then I had to wipe tears from my eyes.  It's just such an innocent love.  Audrey adores her Daddy, and I'm so thankful for that.
