True Love

My daughter is in love. She's 6. He's 6. She writes in her diary how much she loves him and that his best friend is called Luke. It's very cute. She showed me her diary yesterday, giving it to me with a giggle and as I read it, I realised why I am so in love with my girl. Her affection for her beau is real. She feels her emotions, and she's not scared to write them down, with accompanying pictures of stick people looking smiley and happy. Her youthful naivety melts my heart, and I hope that when she grows up she feels love with all the intensity she feels it with now, at 6, but with passion, and that that love is returned back to her with the same vigour.
