Acceptance, courage, wisdom.

Grace, tonight:

“Whit, your eyes are the color of the sky. It’s beautiful.”

Whit, tonight:

“Mummy, I love you.”
“How much?”
“As much as the whole world.”

Running through my head like the neon stripe of words on the Times Square Jumbotron tonight:

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.

(Reinhold Niebuhr)

    My daughter, to me: "I love Daddy a thousand. … I love you three."
