The day you were born our lives changed forever. We were blessed beyond measure and we are eternally grateful for the gift God gave us in you. The love we feel for you can't be put into words, it can only be shown. It is our hope that you know how much you are loved every day.
We have so many dreams for you, baby girl. We pray for health and happiness, first and foremost. We hope that you know that even on days where happiness seems to be far away, that we are always there for you. Even when you grow up and move away, you can always come home. We pray that you will grow to be a strong and independent young woman. We want you to dream for yourself and to dream big. There is nothing that you can't do. Don't let anyone tell you differently.
We hope you learn the importance of family. No matter how far you spread your wings, it is so very important to remember your roots. Family will always be there for you. Some of your most special relationships will come from not only your Mommy and Daddy, but from your grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins. These relationships will be the foundation of the woman you will become. Cherish them.
We hope that you develop a relationship with God. We will do everything we can to teach you about the Lord and all the wonders of life. Even though life will get tough, and trust us, it will, it is so very important to believe in something. "Belief is a beautiful armor." Remember that.
We can never tell you enough that we love you. Remember, every day we love you. So if ever a day goes by where we don't utter those words to you, know that we do. More than you could ever imagine. Now it's your turn to shine, baby! Grow. Learn. Laugh. Cry. Dream. Love. Believe.
We love you. Forever and Always,
Mommy & Daddy
