In My Daughter's Eyes
In my daughter's eyes I am a heroI am strong and wise and I know no fearBut the truth is plain to seeShe was sent to rescue meI see who I wanna beIn my daughter's eyesIn my daughter's eyes everyone is equalDarkness turns to light and theworld is at peaceThis miracle God gave to me gives mestrength when I am weakI find reason to believe In my daughter's eyesAnd when she wraps her handaround my fingerOh it puts a smile in my heartEverything becomes a little clearerI realize what life is all aboutIt's hangin' on when your hearthas had enoughIt's giving more when you feel like giving upI've seen the lightIt's in my daugter's eyesIn my daughter's eyes I can see the futureA reflection of who I am and what will beThough she'll grow and someday leaveMaybe raise a familyWhen I'm gone I hope you see how happyshe made meFor I'll be thereIn my daughter's eyes

Maya-isms Volume 1
Maya is almost 3 years old (34 months on June 12th to be exact). Her vocabulary has exploded this past month! I need to keep track of all the funny, adorable and cute things she's been saying so I can tell her when she's older.
"It's like a dream come true," Maya said after seeing Mommy pull out her 10-year old wedding gown (it was very princess-y and most likely reminded her of Cinderella - hence the movie quote response).
"Good job Mommy" - her response when I finished coloring a page from one of her coloring books. We were coloring books together today (Monday June 9, 2008).
"I like my Mommy" - she looked up to me from coloring her books and smiled as she said this. Awwwww. Who wants to go back to work after hearing this? :-) It's the best affirmation a mommy can get (in addition to I love my mommy - which I hear a lot as well!).
"Anything else?" - after Lola gave her multiple instructions to find her crayons. I don't think she was giving Lola some attitude so we thought it was pretty funny. I must say "Anything else" a lot - I mean, where else would she hear it? Maybe preschool.
"Look at all these (fill in the blank)" - could be cars, doors, sunscreen, stuff, etc etc. Said with a lot of excitement and a rise in volume of her voice :-)
