Day 13: A letter to someone.

I'll never refuse an excuse to write a letter to someone I love...especially not my sweet little daughter =)


Dear Adeline,

Being your Mommy for these last 28 months has been the best moments of my life. Watching you grow has been a wonderful blessing that God has bestowed on me. It's amazing to know that He - God - trusts me with one of His most precious gifts; you. Jesus says children are the heritage of the Lord and I really do see God's face every time you smile your sweet little smile.

I take my job as your Mama very seriously and everything I do is out of love for you.

When you say I love you; make sure you mean it because to say it and not mean it is truly the most painful of all lies. I love you. My love for you is bigger than the moon and stars and strawberry milk and anything else of worth in the world.

If you make a mistake have the courage to admit it, it doesn't matter if you are forgiven or not, what matters most is that you took responsibility. Always remember that no matter how bad of a mistake you may make, no matter how
much pain and regret it may cause, the people who truly love you will see past it because you matter to them more than you may fully realize. I know I will not be a perfect Mother but I am willing to admit when I make mistakes, apologize and do my best to correct them.

I love your Daddy. He is my best friend, my love, my soul mate and everything else in between. It is from that love that you were created. You are the apple of his eye. I know he loves you more than me and I am fully OK with that.

You are my greatest accomplishment. You have opened every corner of my heart and filled it so much that it's bursting with love and joy.

I loved you yesterday, I love you still...I always have, I always will.

Love,
Mom
