I'm just loving this thread so much. Each letter gives me a lump in my throat and makes me feel closer to all of you.

When I used to sing my daughter to sleep at night, she would try to trap my hand in her little arms so that I couldn't get away after she'd fall asleep. When she nodded off, it alomst broke my heart to wriggle out of her loving embrace. Sometimes I wouldn't, and I'd just sit and watch her angelic face in sleep.

There is no greater treasure.
