Josiah: You know, I think Lyra is getting curlies just like Jackie.

Me: I KNOW!!! Aren’t they cute?

Josiah: Yeah, she has something from everybody. She has my nose and papa’s skin, it’s so brown. She has Jackie’s curlies and I think Lucy’s eyes. What color are Lucy’s eyes again? brown, yep. Lucy’s eyes.

Me: She doesn’t have anything from me?! She doesn’t huh?

Josiah: She might have your kindness, we’ll just have to wait and see when she gets older.

 

*sigh*, Oh, be still my heart, I think she got kindness from him…
