Only Dad

"Only Dad's allowed in. He's my helper," Natalie (4) explains, guarding her blockaded bedroom door. She plots and schemes and dreams, and she wants her dad to always be included, and I inhale inspiration. This is how I should be too.

Later, Daddy leaves a note for the girls on their art easel, and this inspires me too, because I know God gives us signs that He loves us. I've seen them before and I'll see them again, and I want to always remember to look.
