A Promise To My Daughter

To my beautiful baby girl,

Mommy promises to always protect you.

I will protect you from all that is bad, and shine light on what is good. I promise to always love you more than I could ever love anything in this world. I promise to always put you first. I promise to give you the best, warmest hugs. I promise to help you become anything and everything you wish to become. I promise to always read "just one more story". I promise to stand next to you, through every battle you may encounter and to fight with you. I promise that no matter the future arguements or disagreements we face, we always end each and every one of them with a hug and an "I love you more". I promise to help lead you through this journey of life and to help show you how to grow in your faith. I promise to help show you the beauty of this world and protect you from the ugly to the best of my ability. I promise to be your pillow to lay your head, a shoulder for you to cry on, and the one you can rely on. Forever and always, I thank you for making me your mommy. I promise to always love you.
