Last night as I was going to bed & imagining what this day would be like, I thought about dropping this girl off at the kindergarten doors and thought ‘There goes my whole world.’ But I realized in an instant that for Lydia, that phrase doesn’t go far enough. When this kid showed up on the scene 5 years ago, she not only became a part of, but obliterated and remade my whole world. In one fell swoop and a million micro & macro lessons thereafter, she changed my life course and my worldview.
.
There goes my moral earthquake.
There goes my paradigm shift.
There goes my life redefined.

So was it a big deal when my whole universe walked into kindergarten today, complete and utter darling miracle that she is? Yes, it was. And you darn well better believe it when I say, “Look out, this one’s a world-changer!” Because trust me—I know.
