image flash memory

this is how I see her. sometimes I have these moments that I take full circle. I see her, my chest aches with love and cherishing and worry, and I wonder. someday, when she is 15 and thinks I am totally out of touch, or when she is 20 something and getting married, or 18 and rushing out the door, will this image flash through my head? this day. this ache. she won't have the slightest notion. until maybe someday, her daughter will imprint in her. and it will hurt. and maybe she will wonder.
