Slipping Through My Fingers


If you haven't been to see Mamma Mia!, I highly recommend it! Having very little knowledge of the Broadway play, music, etc., I was unfamiliar with the ABBA song "Slipping Through My Fingers." And as I sat there listening to that song, the lyrics struck me and I found myself fighting back tears. I could just see my little girl all grown up, and it made me sad. She is my little buddy, and I have truly enjoyed being able to spend time with her this summer! We have gotten so attached to one another, and I know that when I have to return to school in less than a month, I'll feel as if I'm missing part of my own body. That, I have discovered, is the true meaning of love. She has blessed our lives in so many ways, and I often stop and thank God that He has blessed us with such an angel! And while I often say I'd like to keep her from getting any older, and thus slipping through my fingers, I wouldn't want to deprive her of the opportunity to experience this wonderful life and the awesome feeling of love!
