Gimme A Break

A little girl made my day today. As I dropped my daughter off at her tutor’s house, the neighbor’s toddler saw me and waved at me, a little shyly at first but when she saw me wave back, she toddled in my direction and continued waving even as I drove away.

I brought back memories of when my girls were that age and how they used to wave to me as I pulled out of my driveway for the commute to work every morning. I hated leaving them at home and I couldn’t wait to go home after work each day to be greeted with excitement at the door.

I miss those waves and hugs and kisses. Now that they are teens, there are few too few of these any more. Sigh!
