💯 “My husband often says he doesn’t want the children to grow up. I understand. Our years with everyone in the house, still little, still believing I hung the moon, were such sweet, simple years. We went on family walks together most evenings, the kids running ahead of us and hiding somewhere on the path to either spy on their dad and me or to jump out and scare us.”
