some days i have hope. when things go well and we laugh and make fun of each other and talk about boys. some days i look at her and i can't help staring. because she really is a beautiful girl. her smile is contagious. and she's got something about her that makes me wish she'd just reach over and give me a hug.
i think the thing that would give me the most joy in the entire world would be to hear her say, "brittany, i love you."
