Blossom

How lucky I am to have the gift of you in my life.
I love watching you grow and change and discover.
Time after time, you warm my heart with your smile, your laughter, your silliness, and your extraordinary individuality.
I'm so proud of you for who you are.
While I can't promise you a trouble-free journey, I can tell you that strength is born amidst the struggles and disappointments.
And when you think I "can't possibly understand," I hope you realize that I just might.
Just know I'm giving it my all for your journey.
I realize we don't get along all the time. I want the best for you, and it's hard for me to let go sometimes. To let you choose, explore, experience, and at times, regret. My love for you is just that great.
I wish for you wonderful life adventures, opportunities to pursue your greatest passions, and forever kind of friendships.
Perplexing. Sensitive. Strong.
I love you more than words can ever say. From head to toe tip, you are my dear, dear, daughter.
