"A portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2014."

penny: we've been having a rough week, you and i. you've been sick, the weather has been absolutely freezing, and it all seems to be making you rather irritable. at least i'm hoping it's just the sickness mixed with cabin fever and not those rumored terrible twos everyone likes to speak of. either way, it's no fun. i feel awful when i don't know how to make you feel better, and even worse when my temper runs a little short. i'm working on it though. there is no one in this world who makes me so desperately want to be the very best version of myself. i have no doubt that this phase will pass. you'll feel better, spring will eventually come, and this too shall pass...
