Melt My Heart

After a late night of fireworks, Dempsey got up and gave me a hug and told me “I’ll never forget you.” I asked her what she meant. She said when I’m old, like a grandma, and she’s a parent she will still remember me. Then she said, “Mom, it I don’t have kids, will I still live a normal life?” I repeated what she asked me to make sure I heard right, and she confirmed. I told her...”what is normal anyways, but yeah you’ll have a normal life.”

She ended with “Mom, I love you so much.”

My goodness. This girl.
