Such a path takes courage, and that is why whenever I greet newlyweds, I say, 'Look the courageous ones!' Because you need
courage to love each other as Christ loves the Church.

8. a dollhouse

7. a tea set

6. Christmas dresses & Easter hats

5. the classic-Disney Haley Mills movies

4. Ballet lessons?(if she's interested, unlike her tomboy mother, but I realize their value now after being not-so-graceful for all my life...)

3. Hair bows & head bands

2. Sharing my love for the great women saints: Catherine of Siena, Therese of Liseux, Theresa Benedicta of the Cross...

1. The chance to watch my husband be a daddy to his daughter.

  1. I agree with every single one of those...and you will find more things you adore as you watch her grow. Don't forget about the chance to pass on the love of "North and South"!

    Constance:You know I fell in love with you during our very first dance.
    George: Was it my face or the uniform?
    Constance: It was the way you looked when Major Laferty cut in on us, like a little lost puppy dog.
