Good for you on being able to the splits! yowza!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome list...
ReplyDeletei had many "wow" moments reading but a wow wow kind of moment about being able to still do the splits... time for me to get flexible enough again so i can put that on my list at some point in the future...i LOVE that...
note from the mother of this daughter:
ReplyDeleteshe is all of the things she listed and SO MUCH MORE! Just sitting quietly with her, not even talking, when we sit on the porch to watch the flowers grow, with steaming coffee with identical matched color of Coffeemate in the cup, is amazing.
We think the same except I am not a sports person. Some slip up in her DNA, I suspect. She is who she is. Absolutely beautiful in all aspects. She makes me a better person. Every woman should have such a child in their life. I am surely blessed.
