My sweet little girl,
I just spent the last hour looking through old photo albums of when you were younger, and of course tears came to my eyes as I thought to myself, where has the time gone?!
You are already turning three in 5 short months, and I am almost at a loss of thoughts right now because of how much joy you have given me as your mommy. It is incredible & amazing how much having you as a daughter has changed my life, in such a wonderful way. I never knew how much I could love someone SO much, as I love you.
A few nights ago, you gave me the biggest scare I have experienced yet as a parent. You get these things called febrile seizures, & even though they are harmless and this was only the second time, it was enough to make me beg & cry out to God that you would never have another one again. Moments like those make me realize even more how much you mean to me & how truly agonizing & scary it is to see you like that.
I wish I could protect you from every frightening thing & keep you from every source of pain, but I also know that part of the beauty of life is going through those things together in faith, trusting God. We have been through so much together; there are days where you test me to my every limit, then there are days where all you want is to please me.
No matter the day, I will always love you & want the best for you. You make my heart so full & I am so, so thankful that you are mine.
xoxo~
Mommy
