I often wonder who Magnolia Pearl will be as she ages. I think this is the appeal of babies- the idea that they can be absolutely anything. This is why every woman (and some men too!) who crosses Magnolia Pearl's path stares at her with wonder. Sure, babies are super cute (even the ugly ones) and smell good. Well, sometimes. I think the biggest thing that attracts people to babies is how they have yet to learn bad habits. How they have yet to learn to drive bad or be greedy or have bad manners. I am going to try my hardest to keep Magnolia Pearl as sweet as she is today. I will prevent her heart from becoming heavy for as long as I can. I don't want the world's weight to crush her. I want everyone who meets her to be in awe of her personality and her manners. I want her to be gracious, kind and giving. As I see more and more of her personality I can't help but think in my heart that she is not only sweet because she is a baby and doesn't know better but that she is sweet to the core. That is who she is. I love the person she is becoming and I adore watching her grow.
