Hope for the future

Just a little something Ada said that I didn't want to forget.

We were out and about doing errands and Ada noticed the wreathes and other decorations hanging at the shoe store.  She (of course) commented on how beautiful they were then asked if they were Christmas decorations.  I told her they were and that this is a time of year when we see lots of beautiful Christmas decorations but noted that some people don't celebrate Christmas and might celebrate other holidays.  She pressed for more information and I gave a short rundown of a few other holidays and said something like, "it just depends on what you believe"

This is when she blew my mind.  In her high and sweetest voice she said, "Mama, just like we believe in the Earth!"

Today is a day when I feel like I'm doing something right as a mother and as a person.  Yes Ada we do believe in the Earth and we will do what we can to preserve her.

I love you my Ada boo, I'm so proud of you!
