Pearl was walking very slowly and very carefully, coming around the corner of the desk, over to where I was sitting at the computer. Cradled delicately between her two perfect little hands was a plate from her Princess tea set, covered in hunks of the strawberry that she had just asked me for. "Look Mommy! I made dis for you!" Right at that moment, looking at her beaming little face, I could imagine her hunched over her little table, focused on carefully cutting that huge strawberry into safe, squashed little chunks, using the dull plastic knife from her tea set. Thoughtfully placing a fork on the side of the plate, so I could eat my strawberries with no trouble. Just for me, just for her mommy. Talk about veklempt. Good God, what did I do to deserve such beautiful little souls in my life?
