Dear Child,
This blog is my gift to you.
Having lost my mom almost five years ago, I realize that one of the things I often find I’m wishing for is to know more about my mom’s life. Or get answers to questions about my own childhood. Or know what she thought about almost anything.
You don’t realize what you don’t know until the person you could always ask is gone.
This blog is my chance to make sure that you never feel that way. I want you to know about my childhood and what I learned growing up. I want you to know explicitly how I felt when I found out I was pregnant with you. I want you to know how hard it’s been to watch you grow and gain your independence because it meant you were slowly leaving my grasp. I want you to know everything. Because I don’t want you to one day be in the position of wondering what I would have thought.
This blog is my legacy.
Love Mom
xoxo
