You should be so darned proud of her! Plenty of adults that aren't even that mature and kind nowadays.

my daughter was also an incredible person but sadly she never lived long enough to have children of her own. Marley's parents are both great. thank you!

they need to be extra great after what we've gone to them and their worlds.

it drives me kinda apeshit to consider how much more mature my 11-year-old granddaughter is than the president and his cult.
