A new friend of mine asked me to write some thing about my daughter. Although my daughter is my life my passion and most of all my reason for living. I never wrote openly about her. So I asked myself why. I said “Self Why?” There was no answer however my mind went back to the day she was born. As I thought how I felt, scared as well as joy. She is the reason I’m not a statistic . Why everyday I strive to be better than before. Why…. I am me and I am trying to be more than I am. To describe in words just how she makes me feel would be an injustice. Its like a living dream that pulls me inside. To understand the connection one must live within its realm. From her cries for help, to her laughs of joy, to her hugs good night. Everyday she makes me more proud as she tries to find her own way through life’s crowd. I laugh when someone say she looks like me for all I see is her individuality. My daughter, my life, my love. I know you are heaven sent and I thank God. From the day you were born I engraved you in my heart so no matter how far you go we will never be apart. I am an extension of your life as well as you are mine. Any pain, any joy, any lost, any love you feel I carry as mine. As you grow older you will experience this world but in my eyes you’ll still be daddy’s little girl. I will give the gift of love knowledge and respect only thing I ask is you expect nothing less. Times will get hard for you and me both. Together we can conquer all even when there seems to be no hope. My love for you goes beyond the depths of the world. But like the seasons I know you will change and like the trees grow and blossom and pursue all of your dreams. I only wish I could go back in time to relive each moment one day at a time. But I will cherish each day that we have to spend recording each moment as if it was the end. How I can’t wait to see your face as you experience all the wonders that God has placed. So as I set you down life’s path. Never forget to stop look around and remember to laugh. Know this in any journey you take that no matter what this life may bring you can not be replaced. You are my heart, my joy a piece of my soul. I love you and these words only begin to describe the joy and happiness I feel inside…..
I say to who desires to read this. I became me because of the life I was blessed with. No everyday is day to do my best. To leave my mistakes in the past and put hatred to a rest. I have more to live for than I ever dreamed I have more reason to succeed than I would ever need….
So to you my love don’t give in to fear, because no matter what daddy’s right here….
