Her Hero

I don't check Hadley's back pack that often.  I think I take for granted Wayne is at the school with her, so he knows what is going on.  Generally, when I do check her back pack all I find is a ton of folded up notes that her and her friends draw and give to each other.  They fold them up in those fun little shapes, we use to love and write PUSH and draw a button on the outside.  It then takes me down memory lane and I get a little nostalgic, then sad because my baby is growing up and I might cry a little.  After a little more thought, maybe I don't check her back pack because I don't want to be curled up in the fetal position crying my eyes out.  A few months ago though, I got the treat of what I'm pretty sure will be my life.  My heart soared......

 

 

Yes, her spelling is a little off, but what made this so special to me, is this isn't something she and I or her and her Daddy have talked about.  This is something her PawPaw told her about, probably when they were sitting in the pasture watching the Purple Martins.  She never mentioned it but she understood what he told her, why it was important and stored it away.  Love this girl and love that she is listening, we just don't know it sometimes because she locks it away for later!  Love her HERO too!
