P MELTS MY HEART

Last night P and I talked before we both drifted off to sleep. She talked about her brother and how much she missed him. She talked about her dad. Her dad was asking me if she could start staying with him from Friday until Sunday and I felt that she wasn't ready for such a big change and he hasn't asked since then. But last night P said that he's been asking her. I asked her what she said and she laughed and said "mom, I said NO. Of course. I said that I wanted to stay with my mommy." I know that she loves her dad and I know that he loves her, but he's been gone for two years and usually shows no interest in keeping her for longer than 2 or 3 hours. I worry that she might one day want to move in with him, but right now, I know that she loves her momma. She's been with me this whole time, and I haven't been away from her for more than a day. P always finds ways to let me that she loves me. She's always making me pictures or she has Pop help her write me a letter. And I try my best to let her know that love her each and every day.
