A Super Girl

Remember when
you felt like you could
conquer the world?



Be whatever you wanted to be.
Do whatever you wanted to do.


And you knew you could do it.

Anything.



Because that's what they said.

 Your mom, your teachers, your dad.
They all said it.


So you went out to do it.


Discovering.
Learning.

Becoming.


All that they knew you could be.

A super girl.



And that's what I am.

This was one of my most favorite days!
Maybeline loves wearing my superman cape
that my mom made me when I was in preschool.
She insisted she wear it on our walk...
with her baby in hand.
And my camera in mine.
I love my super girl.

    1. They do grow so fast! And you notice it the most when you don't see them everyday. She loves her grandma though! No matter the distance!

  3. OH WOW, seriously, this post goes down as my all time FAVORITE post in the HISTORY of BLOGS and POSTS.... wow Lis. You captured it all... the photos, the words, the message, and the way you put it together. This is what blogs were meant to do... stir emotions. Absolutely beautiful and precious beyond words. I love every detail. And YOUR CAPE?? That makes it the most precious of ALL!! Mom had her dreams in you and making you feel like you were a SUPER GIRL and now you pass on those same dreams and wishes to your daughter. I am blown away. Great work sister! I LOVE YOU
