Every year seems to be going faster and faster. I even asked your dad the other day if he even remembered you as a baby. It seems like so long ago when I first held you in my arms. It felt like a dream. I remember staring at you in the hospital and thinking there was no way they were going to let me take you home. It was all just a dream I thought. What did I do to deserve something so tiny and precious?
But they did let me take you home. Just me, you and your handsome daddy. 9 years ago. How could it have gone so fast?!?! You were this tiny 6 pound baby. Now, look at you. Still tiny, but becoming such a lady. You have such a strong mind and spirit. I often wonder what kind of woman you're going to grow into. At times, I see a little of me in you. A whisper of something good from me. I pray you only take the good and forget all the bad.
I am so incredibly proud of who you are and who you are becoming. You have stuck up for friends and made some tough decisions lately that I know have been hard. I know there will be days you'll really wonder exactly who you are. Trust me, I'm still finding out so much about myself....at my age! But your dad and I will always be here for you.
I love celebrating you.
Thank you for making me a mom. And for teaching me what that really means.
You are incredible.
Love,
Your Mamasita
