8 going on 40

8 going on 40. That's how I feel about Brenna Grace's heart and thought processes. That girl is so far ahead of her age. I am blown away daily by her. 
It's been a hard few days for me. Very emotional. Missing Mom. Wanting life to just go back to how it used to be. When she was still here. Before Cancer. Back when things weren't so hard. 
But Brenna has seen me crying a couple of times the last two days. And overheard me talking on the phone to Josh. So tonight before bed she asked me why I was crying earlier. I told her I was ok. But she persisted, explaining that she knew I was crying yesterday too. And she can tell when my make up is messed up. So I told her I was just missing my Mama. She said "I know. It's really hard now that MeMawMom isn't here". I agreed and told her that sometimes I just miss my Mama and I cry. And sometimes I cry on the phone to  Daddy because I miss her so much. To which she replied- "I know how bad I miss you when you are out of town for a few days. So I know you must miss MeMawMom really really bad."
Yall- I. Almost. Lost. It. That girl. She is so wise beyond her years. What 8 year old thinks like this? I'm not sure what I would do without this little lady. She keeps me in check. I'm so proud to be her Mommy.
