Sometimes it takes a little patience.
Some waiting around.
A little courting (in this case in the form of tickling).
A little more waiting.
A little coaxing. Kind words. Patient words.
A lot more patience.
And then suddenly…
she pops her head out and you decide it was worth it.
The waiting. The kind words. The gentle coaxing. The art of patience.
With Every Intention 
I love it and can hear the voices in my mind.

Stacie, thank you for this sweetness! Your daughter, the turtle (tortoise?), your captioning, the message–all of it. So sweet.
