All you need is love...

This is the card Eleanor made for Lucy's baptism

I chuckled to myself as she dictated the words for me.  I wrote them down then she carefully typed them with a little help from Grandpa and Kyra.
Later in the evening as I was putting away all of the sweet memories of Lucy's special day, this note resonated a bit differently.  I didn't see it as yet another example of a five year old who never knew there was a box to think inside of but rather as proof positive she knows what love is all about.  What she wrote in this card is what we all really want to hear, isn't it?  To hear, I think things will be just fine, but if not, if this thing goes off into a ditch, I'm right here with you.  That's love.
