My Whole Life
Last spring, Claire's foot was a few inches shy of reaching the gas pedal on the John Deere which she desperately wanted to drive.
But it was a growing winter. Today the snow blade came off and Claire climbed on for a test run. Feet reach...Ta da!
Michael said, "Man, they sure do grow."
I said, "Yes, they do."
Claire shouted, "I am so excited! I've been waiting for this my whole life!"
What have you been waiting for your whole life?
