I absolutely abhor endings and goodbyes. Yes, abhor. Hate isn't a strong enough word, I feel. But in all seriousness, I can't stand having to walk away from someone you love so much and know that you might not ever see them again, or that if you do maybe too much time will have passed by then and you'll only be a good memory and nothing more. I want more than memories, but that's impossible. I just wanted those little girls to be a part of my life forever, and honestly, I'm pretty sure I'd do anything for them. It's amazing how one week can feel like a lifetime, only one big bear hug can turn into "I love you." I love those cheesy grins from Addy, that adorable freckled nose on Alissa, those sad baby blue eyes on Azalea, and those fierce hazel ones on Amy. I love that little smirk and that bashful grin on Azalea. I love those chubby cheeks and that stubborn expression on Angelina's precious face. I love Hailey's innocence and grace. I wish I could take them all home with me. But it wasn't meant to be.
