All day long we tracked Nici's flight, her dad from
his office, I from mine, colleague Annette calling
me over to look at distance covered as shown on
the Internet, time difference, attention focused on
my little one carried away to Dubai - then via JFK
New York to Mexico where training of crew shall
ensue for two weeks before boarding the ship
Our enthusiastic, energetic, self-assured little fire-
brand as photographer at your service - I imagine
her sparkling brown eyes with green flecks turned
with cheeky laughter upon her subjects or objects
to be photographed: a little girl who illuminated our
lives now shining for others, today excitement for
her adventurous trip fills my mind - I remember
The photo of their official wear - a plain sunflower-
hat - reminding of Ampie by Jochem von Bruggen,
will google it - her joy will not suffer for it - she will
entice with her cheeky delight in life; I love her little
person lent to me to be my child - filling my heart
with joy - teaching me how to handle problems; my
sweet-heart facing challenges and adventures
To be shared ere long and I can't wait for her tales,
her laughter & self-assurance conveying her happy
endorsement of life…
