I love this so much! My youngest daughter has been saying "gweel" for a few years (for "girl") and the other day she marched triumphantly into our room at 6am to announce to her groggy parents that she was, not a gweel, but a GIRL. As excited as we were with her, a little bit of me hurt inside (that good hurt). She'll always be my little gweel.

Oh, that good hurt, right? The incremental stages of growth we parents strive for leave so much behind- such is the terrible beauty of it all! Gweel, love it!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I needed these words this week. And hearing your voice was icing on the cake. You have me remembering all the littlisms my boys would use growing up. And it’s making me happy. 💜
