Sasha

Sasha is my spunky 3 year old who inspires me on a daily basis. Re-discovering the world through her eyes has been an absolute pleasure. She loves everyone unconditionally and is not afraid to show it. For someone so little, she has an intuitive understanding of human nature that truly astounds me. She adores her big brother so much and is his biggest cheerleader. I find myself completely overwhelmed every time I hear her say 'Kabir, I'm so proud of you, great job sweetie!'. I used to think she was just copying me, but over time I realized how sincere her reactions to all Kabir's achievements are. We go swimming together every Sunday, she always watched other children on the water slide, I'd ask her if she wanted to try, she'd reply 'maybe next time', even though I knew she wanted to, her fear was apparent. Today she took a chance and gave it a try. I have to say there was nothing as satisfying as watching her overcome her fear. She must have gone down the slide atleast 20 times, squealing with utter delight. I believe one of the most profound things about having children is watching them develop there personalities bit by bit everyday. Sasha continues to amaze me with her fearless determination to move past all obstacles that fall before her. There isn't a day that passes where I don't feel like a better person for knowing her.
