To all daughters...you are special and you are loved.
Dearest daughter, I know how hard today was for you. It is never easy to say goodbye to someone you love. It is even more difficult, when it isn’t your choice. Just know that she is no longer suffering and is where she was telling everyone she was ready to go to. She loved you […]
Dearest daughter, Today I was told that you were given a “talk” about your priorities being out-of-place. I know that I am your mom; but seriously? How can anyone ever say such a thing about you? What seriously are this person’s expectations especially in light of the fact that you worked so hard to do well yesterday […]
Dear daughter of mine, Today you are performing at an outdoor venue and I wish I could be there to see you. I want to and I know that you are aware of that. I just can’t physically and emotionally bring myself to be around your father, his mother, his new wife and new baby boy when […]
Dearest daughter, Your Mama used to say, “When it rains, it pours.” I used to love the way she would say it too…with a southern accent and sweet long draw on the rains and pours words. I can still hear her saying it in my head. Man was she ever right. The thing I remember as […]
I began writing letters to my daughter several years ago when I was going through a really difficult time in my life. I wrote these letters in a journal. The reason I started writing them was I was concerned about this probing question: What if something happened to me? Would my daughter ever know the real me? How can I leave behind a legacy of who I am, what I believe, where I came from? Would my friends be able to share my real feelings inside? Would they have experiences that I have had to teach her for her future? My purpose in writing is to express my heart to my daughter in a way that is easy to understand and comes from the heart. My hope is that these words will inspire others...be it young mothers, daughters without mothers or mothers who need support to gain some insight and hope for dealing with the struggles we face. Biggest Hugs :)
