I absolutely love the outfits little girls come up with! I think the thing that kills me the most is the thought and care that goes into an outfit like this. It is no accident that she is wearing patriotic knee socks and pink boots with her mint green southern belle hoop skirt dress. This was done deliberately. And this was worn out in public when we ran errands, thank-you-very-much. These kids...I love them so much it hurts.

...but the biggest mistake I made is the one that most of us make while doing this. I did not live in the moment enough. This is particularly clear now that the moment is gone, captured only in photographs. There is one picture of the three of them sitting in the grass on a quilt in the shadow of the swing set on a summer day, ages 6, 4, and 1. And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in a hurry to get on to the next things: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less.
