Rachel has a towel in the shape of a flower that a friend from chorus gave us. We have gotten so much use out of it, probably because she looks absolutely adorable when wrapped up in it.
Tonight she was crying a bit as I dried her off after she stepped out of the tub. (I used to sit her on the toilet and dry her off, but now it's easier to just do it while she's standing up). I quickly wrapped her up and hauled her into my lap. She leaned against me and was so cuddly that I was moved to tell her that I will always remember her this way. She will always be my little girl, even when she's too big to sit in my lap.
Of course, I started crying. Rachel, in turn, started babbling away. She seemed quite content -- didn't even try to turn off the lights, a favorite pastime these days.
