Thank you for coming to meet my daughter.

A child is like a butterfly in the wind

Some can fly higher than others,

But each one flies the best it can

Why compare one against another?

Each one is different.

Each one is special.

Each one is beautiful.

Please come in and meet Victoria..

Isn't she beautiful?

My daughter is one of the most important people in my life. In her eyes she considers me to be like a God. I can do no wrong. I dont think that I am anything special but to her I am her world. She looks up to me in every way that a person could. She gives me the strength I need to move on every day and if I do something wrong she never throws it back in my face and says I told you so. Like any child she does try my patience sometimes but I think that is what children are for. They constantly test you to see how much they can get away with but in reality I think it is a test to see how much strength and will power we have as adults to stand our ground. I have gone through alot of problems with her but I would never give her up or change anything about her.
Some of the activities that she is involved in include baton twirling and Girls Scouts. There is nothing in this world more sacred to me then she is. She is only 10 years old but I am glad that I have had the chance to have her that long and I look forward to having her for the rest of my life. I am looking forward to seeing her grow up and make a great life for herself and I will always be there to help her in any way that she needs. I will do my best to teach her how to be a wonderful person and try and give her all the tools that she will need to become that wonderful person. I have no doubt that she will grow and blossom into a beautiful adult.

I love you Victoria!!!



Here are some pictures of her and her brother








My day becomes wonderful

when I see your

pretty face smiling so sweetly

There is such warmth and intelligence

radiating from you

It seems that every day

you grow smarter and more beautiful

and every day

I am more proud to be your mother

As you go through the many stages of life

you should be aware that there will be times

when you fell scared and confused

but your strength and values

will help you grow from your experiences

and you will understand more about people and life

I have already gone through

these stages

so if you need advice or someone to talk to

to make sense out of it all

I hope that you will talk to me

as I am continually cheering for your happiness

my sweet daughter...

and I love you!

Love,

your mom

                               

To My Daughter, with Love,

on the Important Things in Life

A mother tries to provide her daughter

with insight into the important things in life

in order to make her life

as happy and fulfilling as possible.

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to be good, always helpful to other people

to be fair, always treating others equally

to have a positive attitude at all times

to always make things right when they are wrong

to know herself very well

to know what her talents are

to set goals for herself

to not be afraid of working hard to reach her goals.

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to have many interests to pursue

to laugh and have fun every day

to appreciate the beauty of nature

to enter into friendships with good people

to honor their friendships and always be a true friend

to appreciate the importance of the family

and to particularly respect and love our elder members

to use her intelligence at all times

to listen to her emotions

to adhere to her values.

A mother tries to teach her daughter

to not be afraid to stick to her beliefs

to not follow the majority when the majority is wrong

to carefully plan a life for herself

to vigorously follow her chosen path

to enter into a relationship with someone worthy of herself

to love this person unconditionally

to share all that she has learned in life with this person

If I have provided you with an insight

into most of these things

then I have succeeded

as a mother

in what I hoped to accomplish in raising you

If many of these things slipped by

while we were all so busy

I have a feeling that you know them anyway

One thing I am sure of though

I have taught you to be proud of the fact

that you are a woman equal to all men and

I have loved you every second of your life

I have supported you at all times

and as a mother, as a person, and as a friend

I will always continue to cherish and love

everything about you

my beautiful daughter.
