So today Garry was off to the races to race his very own Pinewood Derby car. It was blue with stickers. Very flashy.
So the girls and I had a girls night in and borrowed Enchanted from a friend. The girls were dismayed that Giselle did not stay a cartoon and pretty much gave up on the movie when she was banished into New York and became "real". Thank goodness for the musical numbers -- they liked those. And I thought, as we danced and twirled around the living room to "How Will She Know" that maybe, just maybe, I am destined to be the mother to girls.

It was flashy & patriotic, but not very fast!
You ARE the mother of daughters AND that's a pretty good thing to be.
A mother's treasure is her daughter.
-- Catherine Pulsifer
To a father growing old nothing is dearer than a daughter.
-- Euripides
Our daughters are the most precious of our treasures, the dearest possessions of our homes and the objects of our most watchful love.
-- Margaret E. Sangster
Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons, ambition; but to our daughters there is something which there are no words to express.
-- Joseph Addison
A son is a son till he takes him a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life.
--Irish Saying
A daughter is a mother's gender partner, her closest ally in the family confederacy, an extension of her self.

WOW Garry! That comment deserves blog placement . . . instead of comment placement. Your daughters and wife are very lucky to have you as their daddy and husband!
