23 years ago…
When I sat with this precious little soul in my arms for the first time, I wished for a few things for her as she grew into herself…
*strength -oh, she’s a strong one!
*independent - she doesn’t need anybody, she’s got it!
*health- it’s a process, but she is healthier every day
*Smart - she smart, definitely Smart with lots of Street smarts (important)
*hard working - she’s a hard worker and her employers love her (of course)!
*kind - wow is she kind!! I couldn’t be more proud of the things I hear and see her do for people that need kindness ❤️
*Loving - she definitely lives her life with love 🩷
*sweet - she’s a sweet one
* Happy - I love watching her find her smile around every corner
*proud - I hope she’s proud of who she is in my eyes she’s pretty amazing
*badass- she knows how figure out how to do things on your own!
* beautiful (inside and out) - there’s no question she’s got this one down!
* adventurous- I taught her this one well… the girl has adventure to more places I could imagine! Bittersweet, I wish I could be adventuring with her… But my wishes came true!!!
My with my strong, independent, healthy, hard-working, kind, loving, sweet, proud, happy, badass, beautiful, adventurous, Kid - is figuring life out !!!
