One Perfect Moment

  Anna in the water, arms and legs working together to propel her, a smile radiating pure joy as she found elusive success.

Emma sitting on the floor, content to watch her sister swim and wave sweetly at the old women doing their exercises in the pool.  She was tall and ladylike, not demanding anything of anyone.

Then in a breath it was gone; but the joy of that one perfect moment will feed my soul today.  It is a gift from God.
