Listen!

This morning, after a breakfast of fruit, yogurt, and banana bread, Liliana reaches up and says, “Hold you?”  We sit on the patio overlooking the beach and the palm trees, and she says, “Listen!”

“Palm trees,” she exclaims and waves her hands back and forth.

“Noisy bird,” she says.  She mimics his cry.

“Whoosh!  Big wave!” she says.

I want to hold her forever, listening with the same attentive ears.  I want to experience life this deliciously close always.
