inner strength

she has always been calm but the sort of calm that comes from an inner composure that belies her age.

she approaches change with fascination, eager to discover the new. hurdles and obstacles are often seen as challenges from which she can learn.

today she had two teeth taken out by the dentist. four injections and two teeth yanked out. no hysterics, no protest, no tears and not even a whimper. afterwards she went back to school (her choice).

i have been her mummy for just over 9 years now but she never ceases to amaze me.
