5 Things I Would Like For You to Remember- A Mother's Heart

I will never forget when I first laid eyes on you. It was in those moments, I literally felt God’s presence in my hands. I knew I had become a part of something greater. It was in those THREE significant life moments that I knew my heart would forever be changed.

My hope for you is that you will navigate through this life with confidence in who you are and hope you will carry these words with you along your journey.

5 Things I Would Like For You to Remember

You have been perfectly created. When the world tries to tell you otherwise, stand true and strong to who you are. That is what makes you, UNIQUELY YOU.
You have power in your choices and your choices are NEVER just about you. The human race is ALL connected, a web of lives. Consider your choices wisely. They never just impact you alone.
Always try to find the positive, even in the hardest of life situations. There is always someone somewhere who has it way worse. Find gratitude even in the most challenging of times.
Don’t underestimate the power of growth in trials. That is when you learn what you are truly made of and where your moral compass lies.
When you make the choice to LOVE someone, let it be a choice you don’t take lightly and that you understand its true depths. Love is NEVER superficial and it travels way beyond human error. It’s a choice that you don’t turn on and off.

Sweet child, your life will be your testament. The legacy you leave behind will forever be a part of your story.

I know you may veer off path from time to time, BUT you will always come back to what has been placed into your heart.

The seed of LOVE and HOPE will forever rest there. And as long as I’m breathing, I will remind you of it over and over again.

Love you with every ounce of my being. Thank you for being the greatest gift the world has seen and for changing me in ways I never thought possible.

Love you,

Mom

P.S. Now, GO clean your room! 😉
