Safety From Within...No Searching Needed

I watched her snuggle down into his arms. He looked down at her with a look so full of love it brought tears to my eyes and made my heart jump. She was so sleepy she couldn't keep her eyes open. I knew at that moment she felt completely safe.

That feeling of safety will keep her safe in so many ways.

In 10yrs when a knucklehead tries to holla, she will be secure in the fact that she knows what love is, that she knows what safety feels like. She will be able to look that boy in the eye and tell him "yeah I know I look good tell me something my daddy ain't already told me"

How many little girls don't get this and go looking for that love and safety in the arms of someone who is only interested in what is between both sets of lips and not what's between their ears?

We want better for our children then we had ourselves. My baby girl has better....
