I want so desperately to stop the hands of time and play with you forever.
I know one day the tea parties and talks about imaginary worlds will stop, and will be exchanged for talks about break ups and college.
My sweet baby girl, your innocence means so much to me. I know you must grow and become a strong, independent woman... a woman with her own path to take and her own dreams to follow.
I pray you follow a wise path; one filled with success, happiness, love, and a relationship with God.
I can't hold your hand all of the time, and I can't guide you forever. But I promise to teach you as much as possible for as long as possible. I promise to share my experiences with you, and to set boundaries and show you what I know of this world.
There will be certain things that you must figure out for yourself, but I pray that I have what it takes to prepare you enough to make the right choices.
But, my sweet baby girl, hold on to dreams of mermaids, princesses, and candy covered worlds. Hold on to the sweetness of childhood for as long as possible.
And remember, that you will understand all of this one day, when you have sweet babies of your own. You will always be my baby girl, whether you are 4, or 40.
So hold on to sweetness, for you deserve nothing but sweetness.
My sweet baby girl.
Above all else, I promise to always show you my love, and I promise to always be there for you. For you are and you will always be, my sweet baby girl.With all my love,
Mommy.
