Dear Delilah,
Thirteen too-short years from now when you are sixteen and smack in the middle of teenage angst, please remember that your daddy, who carried you all the way up 269 steps, and I stood on top of the Arc de Triomphe in 35 degree wind chill at 10:30 at night and then waited an extra 40 minutes just so that you could see the Eiffel Tower sparkle. I will remember the look on your precious face always.
