Roebuck Car Conversation:
Me: Maggie Mae, the comments about you at your logic school promotion ceremony today reminded me so much of the life prayer I’ve been praying for you since you were born.
Xander(10): Do you have a life prayer for me? Is it that I will grow up to be Elon Musk and use all that money to bring glory to God?
Bedtime tuck-in on the night of Millie’s 9th birthday:
Millie: Mom, will you snuggle with me?
Me: ok, Scootch over.
Millie: I know what you’re thinking: You said yes because someday I might not ask you to snuggle with me anymore BUT I will always hug you, and a hug is a one-minute snuggle!!
Me: <squeezes her tight and wills her to stay little forever>
Millie: But don’t worry, I’m still on the snuggle bus.

How could she be any more delightful?
