Moments I hope to always remember...

Brett has been out of town the last couple of days, and Ashlin has really been missing him. We were looking for books to read tonight and she saw this book:

To which she responded in a sad missing her daddy tone, "OH Mom, Can we read this book? It speaks to my heart (placing her hand on her heart)."

This is a very special book to her because it reminds her of her daddy! Her and Brett have always played the "I love you more" game, and a year or so ago she was at her Grandma and Grandpa's house while Brett and I were out of town and Kelly had this book and read it to her. Kelly said she started bawling (up till that point she hadn't shown any signs of missing us). So they got her a copy that she LOVES, and I guess it speaks to her!
