Dear daughters, here's a few things you need to know...
(random ramblings for you, daughters)
(originally written April 2, 2016)
you are loved beyond beyond. Even though you will go through times where you don't feel so, because, well... this life throws things at us like that sometimes... just remember... you certainly are. I love you. I love you because you are mine. You are a gift from God. YOU are part of ME. no matter what phase of life we are in, it is the BEST one yet, because I get another day to do this life with you! It means God is blessing us with each other. On this day, we had fun!
remember:
One day Daddy had to borrow our minivan to cart tennis kids around...and we were stuck with his truck. You remember that day... I'll just throw a few reminders out there: Chick-fil-A, chicken minis! Remember how they stop serving breakfast at 10:30, and we were watching the clock as we waited in line after rushing to get there. It was 10:28 when we ordered. Phew! Just in the nick of time... and remember where Kaci was (shhhh).
Remember picking out socks and other things on that aisle...? It was a fun day. Just because we were together, doing whatever and enjoying each other. Remember dyeing eggs every color of the rainbow every morning of spring break.... Remember catching all the cooking shows! Remember trying things to cook together... Remember starting a fire, from trying to make Pioneer Woman's toasted crackers! (we may not try that one again).... anyway.
Remember the nights of trading off kids getting to fix mama's hair while I read Anne of Green Gables to yall? can't wait to start our next book at night!
As I have said before, it's the little things that matter. One day we'll look back and remember the good times.
These are the good old days, the best days of my life, when I get to see you all smile. Remember....You are loved. Life may get hard sometimes for you, but look ahead and see the light at the end of the tunnel. Look at today, and think of tiny things that can make you smile. and Dear Future Daughter, call me, come see me, know that I'm still here for you to share a little moment with. I love you, yesterday, today, and forever and ever! It may be years in the future, and you may be much older reading this, but you are still my baby of Yesterday. You are still my daughter. You may outgrow your clothes. You may grow in wisdom. You may move on and far away. BUT. You will never get too big, too smart, too far, for me to LOVE. You are my gift from God!
