She thinks he can rope the moon.
I’ve been writing a lot recently about my conversations with the Beans. It may get a little tiresome to read, but I’m so amazed daily that I’m conversing with these little things that not so long ago couldn’t even walk that I have to share!
The other day, we waited on the front porch for Jimmy to come home. It was about 6:45 p.m. and still quite light out but the moon was hanging directly above the neighbor’s house across the street.
The girls have recently become so fascinated by the moon. When they spotted it, they jumped up and down in jubilation.
Maggie kept stretching as far as she could to reach it and Audrey kept saying, “Come here Moon! Come see Maggie and Audrey!”
Maggie turned to me and said, “Momma, get it!” but I told her that I couldn’t reach either.
Then, because she knew that Jimmy was almost home, Maggie said matter-of-factly, “Daddy get the moon.”

Oh, so sweet. The other day Briar was talking about how she is a daughter and Avery is a daughter and that I am a daughter too.Then she said, “And Daddy is a daughter.” And I said, “No, honey, Daddy is a son.” She of course heard “sun” and her eyes got wideand she whispered reverently, “Daddy, is a sun.” My hear broke just a little tiny bit.

That’s a story you don’t want to forget. I love it. The title says it all. Little girls adore their daddy.
