Custom Order
06/15/2010
Soundtrack. . .
If I could custom order a daughter. . .
I'd forget the the sugar-and-spice-and-everything nice. . .
But I'd definitely order a love of play. . .
a vivid imagination. . .
a winning smile. . .
and a sense of style.
My custom-order daughter would be One Tough Cookie. . .
and she would never take herself too seriously.
She'd be a bit of a diva. . .
with a flair for the dramatic. . .
and she'd be willing to work really hard - and push down those demons - to get what she wants.
She'd be independent. . .
with a love of literature. . .
and she'd approach life with zest and excitement . . . sort of as if life were a spontaneous musical!
It's easy to see. . . that my custom-order daughter. . . is YOU, Erin. Through and through!
