Poppy had an unbelievable day in the sun at Indiana’s best theme park, Holiday World. She was so exhasted after all her amazing adventures, she literally fell asleep in the truck before I could even buckle her seatbelt. We are staying at a local hotel and going back tomorrow to spend the day at Splashin’ Safari Water Park.

Motherhood is about raising - and celebrating - the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that she is exactly the person she is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, she just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be.
